The reaction medium is diluted with 50 ml of ethyl acetate and then the mixture is washed with 50 ml of a saturated solution of ammonium chloride, and then twice with 50 ml of water. The organic phases are dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated to dryness. The residue is purified by chromatography over silica with, as eluent, a heptane/ethyl acetate (8/2) mixture. 2-[(6-Bromopyrazin-2-ylamino)methyl]phenol is obtained in the form of a white solid.
