The mixture was then heated at reflux (110° C.) under a nitrogen atmosphere for 65 hours. The crude reaction mixture was then poured onto cold water (30 mL) and extracted with diethyl ether (3×30 mL). The combined organic extracts were concentrated and subjected to flashmaster chromatography (20 g silica cartridge (8:2 petroleum spirits:ethyl acetate, followed by ethyl acetate flush) to afford the desired pyrazine-adduct as an off-white solid (587 mg, 35%).
