The reaction of a variety of N-aryl 2'-deoxyadenosine and adenosine derivatives with PhI(OAc) in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol provides a facile access to benzimidazopurine nucleoside analogues by metal-free C-N bond formation with a purinyl nitrogen atom. These reactions likely proceed via radical-cation/radical processes as indicated by radical inhibition experiments.
