Reaction Steps

To a suspension of thieno[3,2-b]pyrazin-6-ylmethanol 87 (408 mg, 2.455 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (8 mL) and THF (8 mL) was added phosphorus tribromide (1/166 mL, 12.27 mmol) and stirred overnight at rt. Water was added, alkalized with 2N NaOH and extracted with EtOAc. Organic layer was washed with NaHCO3 (aq) solution, brine, dried and evaporated. Purification by chromatography (CH2CL2) gave pure 6-(bromomethyl)thieno[3,2-b]pyrazine 47 (356 mg, 63%). NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 4.80 (s, 2H), 7.71 (s, 1H), 8.49 (d, J=2.3 Hz, 1H), 8.64 (d, J=2.3 Hz, 1H). (m/z)=229 and 231 (M+H)+.
