Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-Methyl-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylic acid amide (3.0 g, 14.3 mmol), bromoacetone (2.36 g, 17.2 mmol) and acetonitrile (40 mL) is stirred overnight at 80° C. The solid formed is filtered and washed with acetonitrile to give 1,6-dimethyl-8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-1-ium bromide salt (4.3 g, 86%).
