Treatment of Boc-protected N-9-aryladenines with 1 degrees alkylamines (1.1 equiv) and DMAP (1.1 equiv) in DMF at 80 degrees C in the presence of activated 5 angstrom molecular sieves gave the corresponding N-6-urea derivatives in excellent yields (66-96%). Select derivatives were screened for antiproliferative activity against a panel consisting of L1210, CEM, and HeLa cells. The most potent analogue exhibited selective activity against HeLa cells (IC50 = 11 +/- 1 mu M).
