The title compound (methyl 2,6-diazidopurine-9-acetate. C8H6N10O2) is a potential intermediate for the synthesis of peptidic nucleic acids containing diaminopurine. Its two azido groups are approximately parallel and at their attachment points, the internal ring angles are 1.4(3)degrees smaller than in the dichloro homologue.
