Abstract:
The palladium-catalyzed coupling of the sodium salt of 7-amino-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine (8-azaadenine, 1) with allylic phosphates or carbonates resulted in mixtures of 2- and 3-substituted 1,2,3-triazolopyrimidines, which were separated by chromatography. 1-Substituted triazolopyrimidines were not isolated from these reactions. Regioselectivity (and stereoselectivity) was also observed for substitution of the allylic moiety when more than one isomer is possible from the reaction. The use of 5-amino-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7-ones (8-azaguanine, 2), instead of 8-azaadenine, also resulted in mixtures. Alternate syntheses of the 3-allyl-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidines confirmed the structures of these compounds.

Preparation of 1° Amines: Azide Synthesis
Azide ions act as good nucleophiles and react with unhindered alkyl halides to form alkyl azides. Alkyl azides do not participate in further nucleophilic substitution reactions, thereby eliminating the chances of polyalkylated products. Alkyl azides are reduced by hydride-based reducing agents, like lithium aluminum...
