    2-Fluoropurine was prepared from 2aminopurine through a diazotization reaction, followed by treatment with Jluoroboric acid. 2-Aminopurine was obtained from a series of reactions, using 5-nitrouracil as the starting material. 2- N-Piperidino and 2- N-anilinopurines were obtained by treating 2-fluoropurine with piperidine and aniline respectively. 6-N-Piperidino and 6-N-anilinopurines were obtained by treating 6-chloropurine with piperidine and aniline. Fluorescence studies were carried out in various solvents and maximum fluorescence was observed in 75% ethanol. 2- Aminopurine showed the highest fluorescence intensity, followed by 2-N-anilino and 2-N-piperidinopurines. 6- Substituted purines showed stronger fluorescence intensities compared to 2-substitutedpurines
