Water → tert-butyl N-(5-formylpyrazin-2-yl)carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixed solution of 0.17 g of tert-butyl (5-(bromomethyl)pyrazin-2-yl)carbamate in 4 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide and 2 mL of dichloromethane, 0.26 g of trimethylamine N-oxide dihydrate was added under cooling with ice, and the mixture was stirred for 2 hours. Thereto were added water and chloroform, the organic layer was separated, and washed with a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, water and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 0.10 g of tert-butyl (5-formylpyrazin-2-yl)carbamate as a white solid.
