Pyridine → 3-Bromo-6-(3-fluorophenyl)-5-pyridin-4-ylpyrazin-2-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-(3-fluorophenyl)-5-pyridin-4-ylpyrazin-2-ylamine (Example 1, 70 mg, 0.26 mmol) in chloroform (4 mL) at 0° C. was added pyridine (22 μL, 0.27 mmol) and bromine (14 μL, 0.27 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 h, chloroform (20 mL) was added, the organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (dichloromethane/methanol 95:5) to provide the title compound as a red solid (22 mg, 24%).
