Procedure
To a solution of ethyl 3,5-dimethoxypyrazine-2-carboxylate (0.314 g, 1.48 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) at room temperature was added potassium hydroxide (0.135 g, 2.41 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 17 h, quenched with 5 M HCl (0.48 mL), and diluted with EtOAc. The solid was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated. Purification by flash column chromatography on silica gel (10% MeOH in DCM) gave 3,5-dimethoxypyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (0.261 g, 1.42 mmol, 96% yield) as a white solid. LC/MS (ESI+) m/z=185.1 (M+H)+.
