Reaction Steps

3-Bromo-6-(2-furyl)-5-pyridin-4-ylpyrazin-2-amine (Example 62, 160 mg, 0.5 mmol) was suspended in methanol (5 mL), sodium methoxide was added (0.12 mL, solution 30% in methanol, 0.5 mmol) and the solution was heated to 70° C. for 2 hours. The mixture was cooled, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between dichloromethane and brine. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was dried and concentrated. The residue was triturated with diethyl ether to provide the target compound as a brownish solid (62 mg, 46%)
