TLDR
The N3 : N7 : N9 alkylation patterns for reactions of the lithium, sodium, and potassium salts of adenine with various alkylating agents in dimethyl sulfoxide were determined by 1H n.m. spectroscopy as discussed by the authors.Abstract:
The N3 : N7 : N9 alkylation patterns for reactions of the lithium, sodium, and potassium salts of adenine with various alkylating agents in dimethyl sulfoxide were determined by 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy. Only for the Li+ salt was any significant effect of ionic association noticed. Of the alkylating agents used, only chloromethyl pivalate gave a concentration dependent alkylation pattern. The latter effect was most pronounced with the heterogeneous alkylation conditions of anhydrous Na2CO3/HCONMe2, adenine, and chloromethyl pivalate; here, increasing concentrations changed the main reaction from N7- to N9-alkylation. Solvent effects on the alkylation patterns were also studied. Within the common dipolar aprotic solvent group, (Me2N)3PO, HCONMe2 and Me2SO, effects were small; in protic solvents, particularly formamide, enhanced N3-alkylation was observed.read more

Ambident heterocyclic reactivity: Alkylation of 2-substituted-4-methylbenzimidazoles
TL;DR: In this paper, the steric effects of 2-substituents on N 1 and N 3 alkylations and their variation with alkylating agent are explained by invoking the geometry of roughly conical "approach corridors" to the nitrogen alkylation sites.

Ambident heterocyclic reactivity: the alkylation of pyrrolopyridines (azaindoles, diazaindenes)
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative importance of charge, product development, and steric approach control in determining the alkylation pattern (pyrrole versus pyridine ring alkylations) was discussed within a framework of variable S N 2 transition state structures.

Synthesis of purine-acridine hybrid molecules related to artificial endonucleases
TL;DR: A new series of molecules in which the purine is linked to an amino-acridine by an aliphatic chain containing amido or/and amino groups is prepared, the key intermediates are α-halo-ω-amino polyaza which may be of general use as linkers in bioconjugate chemistry.
