Diethyl Oxalate → 8-(4-aminophenoxy)pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3(1H,4H)-dione

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butyl 4-(2,3-diamino pyridin-4-yloxy)phenylcarbamate (0.320 g, 1.0 mmol) in diethyl oxalate (2 ml) is reacted twice for 10 minutes in a microwave reactor (180 C, 150 W). The solution is cooled and the solid filtered and washed with cold ethanol. Obtained 8-(4-aminophenoxy)pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3(1H,4H)-dione (70 mg, 25% yield) as a grey solid.
