Procedure

A suspension of 2-amino-5-bromopyrazine (100 mg), 95% methanethiol sodium salt (84.8 mg) and tetrakistriphenylphosphine palladium (66.4 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2.9 ml) was stirred at 60° C. for 15 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was poured into a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, extracted with toluene, washed with a saturated aqueous NaCl solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The resulting residue was separated using silica gel column chromatography. (ethyl acetate:hexane 1:2) to obtain 67.8 mg (84%) of the desired product as a white powder.
