Two polymorphs of 2,6-dichloropurine, C(5)H(2)Cl(2)N(4), have been crystallized and identified as the 9H- and 7H-tautomers. Despite differences in the space group and number of symmetry-independent molecules, they exhibit similar hydrogen-bonding motifs. Both crystal structures are stabilized by intermolecular N-H···N interactions

Occupational contact sensitization to 2,6-dichloropurine.
A general procedure to obtain tetra-substituted uric acid by stepwise N-alkylation is described. 2,6-Dichloropurine (1) was condensed with 1-propanol by Mitsunobu reaction to give 9-propyl congener (2). Treatment of 2 with ammonia gave adenine derivative (4a), which was converted to
