Procedure
A mixture of tert-butyl (3R)-4-(3-chloropyrazin-2-yl)-3-methylpiperazine-1-carboxylate* (35 g, 0.11 mol), ethylene glycol (100 g, 1.61 mol) and t-BuOK (25 g, 0.22 mol) in DMSO (150 g) was stirred at 50° C. for 3 h. After this time, the reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc (500 g) and water (500 g) and sodium chloride (20 g) was added. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo to furnish 32.5 g (87%) of the title product. HPLC purity: 75%. HRMS m/z calcd for C16H26N4O4 (M)+ 338.1954, found 338.1959. *Described in WO 00/76984, Example 172, Step 2.
