Procedure

2,3-Dibromo-6,7-dichloro-quinoxaline (2.75 g, 7.7 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (50 mL). Anhydrous ammonia was bubbled into the solution. After 2 hours, DMF was removed in vacuo at 70° C. The residue was filtered through a pad of silica gel (one inch thick) eluted with ethyl acetate. After removal of the solvent in vacuo, the residue was recrystallized from acetone to give the desired 2-bromo-3-amino-6,7-dichloroquinoxaline as a white solid. (7.84 g, 89% yield): mp 232-4° C.; Rf=0.41, EtOAc:Hex (1:1); IR (KBr, cm−1) 3488, 3348, 1617, 1588, 1443, 1406, 1338, 1114, 1036, 965, 893, 867, 577, 557; 1H NMR (DMSO) δ 8.02 (s, 1H), 7.76 (s, 1H), 7.51 (broad s, 2H, NH2), 7.18 (s, 2H); 13C NMR (DMSO) δ 147.7, 136.7, 131.4, 129.0, 128.8, 124.4, 122.3, 121.9; MS (ACPI), m/z 291.8 (M−1)−; Anal.
