Abstract: A modified scheme for the adenallene and cytallene synthesis with the total yield of 30–35% is suggested. 1-Benzoyloxy-4-bromo-2-butyne is used as an alkylating agent. Methods of the acetylene-allene transition of hydroxybutynic derivatives of nucleic acid bases in the presence of potassium tert-butylate or sodium dimsylate are investigated.
