Reaction Steps

2-(Aminomethyl)pyrazine (3.2 g) and diisopropylethylamine (5.8 ml) were added to a solution of 2,3-dichloro-1,4-dihydro-1,4-dioxonaphthalene (3.0 g) in benzene (90 ml) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. Water was added to the reaction solution and the resulting precipitate was removed by filtration and then the filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and brine and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (elution with chloroform) to give 2-chloro-1,4-dihydro-1,4-dioxo-3-[(2-pyrazinylmethyl)amino]naphthalene (0.23 g) as a light brown powder.
