[NH2:1][CH2:2][C:3]([C:10]1[CH:11]=[N:12][CH:13]=[CH:14][CH:15]=1)([O:7][CH2:8][CH3:9])[O:4][CH2:5][CH3:6].[CH3:16][CH:17]([CH2:23][CH3:24])[C:18](=[O:22])[C:19](O)=[O:20]>>[CH2:8]([O:7][C:3]([O:4][CH2:5][CH3:6])([C:10]1[CH:11]=[N:12][CH:13]=[CH:14][CH:15]=1)[CH2:2][NH:1][C:19](=[O:20])[C:18](=[O:22])[CH:17]([CH3:16])[CH2:23][CH3:24])[CH3:9]Participants
Procedure
In a manner analogous to Example 1, by condensing 3-(2-amino-1,1-diethoxyethyl)pyridine with 3-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid there is obtained rac-N-[2,2-diethoxy-2-(3-pyridyl)ethyl]-3-methyl-2-oxovaleramide as an amorphous, colorless solid. Subsequent acidic hydrolysis to rac-3-methyl-2-oxo-N-[(3-pyridylcarbonyl)methyl]valeramide hydrochloride (beige, crystalline solid, melting point 158°-159°) and ring closure gives rac-3-(1-methylpropyl)-5-(3-pyridyl)-2(1H)-pyrazinone as a yellow solid, melting point 146°-148° (from acetonitrile). The conversion into rac-2-chloro-3-(1-methylpropyl)-5-(3-pyridyl)pyrazine is also effected analogously to Example 1. Hydrazinolysis to rac-2-hydrazino-3-(1-methylpropyl)-5-(3-pyridyl)pyrazine in the form of beige crystals, melting point 166°-167° (from ethanol/water) and subsequent condensation with diethyl malonate gives ethyl rac-8-(1-methylpropyl)-6-(3-pyridyl)-s-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazine-3-acetate, MS: 335 (M)+, which is converted by saponification into the above acid, MS: 267 (M-CO 2)+.
