6-Allylpurine derivatives are formed by Cu(I)-catalyzed coupling of (9-benzyl-9H-purin-6-yl)- magnesium chloride with allyl halides. The reaction is accompanied by allylic rearrangement in some cases. Under acid conditions the double bond of the allyl group rearranges to the conjugation with purine ring.
