Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 178513809, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In a mixture of 1.0 mL of water and 1.0 mL of ethanol is suspended 0.13 g of 3,5-dihydroxy-6-ethoxycarbonyl-2-pyrazinecarboxamide. At ambient temperature, 0.34 mL of 5 mol/mL sodium hydroxide is added to the suspension, which is then stirred for 16 hours. The reaction mixture is adjusted to pH 2 by adding 1 mol/mL hydrochloric acid. The deposited crystals are collected by filtration and washed with water to obtain 0.07 g of 3,5-dihydroxy-6-carboxy-2-pyrazinecarboxamide.
