The reaction mixture was then cooled and 100 ml of toluene was added. The solids (sodium chloride) were filtered off. From the filtrate thus obtained the toluene was distilled off and the filtrate was subjected to distillation under reduced pressure to give 17.2 g of pivaloyloxymethyl pyrazinecarboxylate. Yield: 72%
