Procedure: 3-Methyl-7-(methylpivaloyl)xanthine (406 mg, 1.5 mmol) was added to a stirring suspension of NaH (36 mg, 1.5 mmol) in DMSO (20 ml) and stirred for 15 min. 6-Bromo-2-hexanone (260 mg, 1.5 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 20 hrs. The reaction mixture was poured into 100 ml of water and extracted with 25% ethanol/dichloromethane (3×40 ml). The combined organic extracts were combined, dried with magnesium sulfate and the solvent was removed under vacuum to give a brown oil. The brown oil was chromatographed (10 g silica gel, ethyl acetate) to give 1-(5-oxohexyl)-3-methyl-7-(methylpivaloyl)xanthine (270 mg, 49% yield) the reaction mixture was stirred for 20 hrs extracted with 25% ethanol/dichloromethane (3×40 ml) dried with magnesium sulfate the solvent was removed under vacuum to give a brown oil The brown oil was chromatographed (10 g silica gel, ethyl acetate)

Procedure: In a flame dried round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar and under inert atmosphere (N2), a suspension of 4-nitro-2H-[1,2,3]triazole (114 mg, 1.00 mmol) in DMF (1.0 mL) was treated with DIPEA (0.34 mL, 2.00 mmol). After 30 min, a solution of 6-bromo-hexan-2-one (179 mg, 1.00 mmol) in DMF (1.0 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 24 h at 50° C. Water (10 mL), followed by EA (10 mL) were added. The aq. layer was extracted with EA (10 mL) and the combined org. extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by FC (2:1 hept-EA) gave the title compound as a yellow oil: TLC:rf (2:1 hept-EA)=0.26. LC-MS-conditions 02: tR=0.86 min. were added The aq. layer was extracted with EA (10 mL) extracts were dried over Na2SO4 filtered the solvents were removed under reduced pressure Purification of the residue by FC (2:1 hept-EA)

Procedure: In a flame dried round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar and a Dean-Stark under inert atmosphere (N2), a solution of 6-bromo-hexan-2-one (3.34 g, 18.65 mmol) in toluene (71.3 mL) was treated with ethylene glycol (10.4 mL, 186.92 mmol) and TsOH (35 mg, 0.19 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 3 h, allowed to cool to rt and sat. aq. NaHCO3 (100 mL) and ether (100 mL) were added and the aq. phase was washed with water (2×100 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure to give the title compound. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ1.34 (s, 3H), 1.50-1.65 (m, 2H), 1.65-1.75 (m, 2H), 1.84-1.98 (m, 2H), 3.43 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 2H), 3.90-4.04 (m, 4H).
