Reaction Steps

Ethyl 2-(3,5-dibromopyrazin-2-ylamino)acetate (2.00 g, 5.90 mmol), (tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methanamine (0.713 g, 6.19 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (3.08 mL, 17.70 mmol) and dimethylsulfoxide (4 mL) were combined in a microwave vial with a stirbar and heated in a Biotage Emrys Optimizer microwave reactor at 150° C. for 1 h. The resulting mixture was transferred to a round bottom flask with methanol. The methanol and N,N-diisopropylethylamine were removed under reduced pressure and the residue purified using Biotage flash chromatography (5-100% ethyl acetate in hexane). Fractions containing the desired product were combined in a separatory funnel and washed twice with water and once with brine. The organics were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dried under high vacuum at 50° C. to give impure desired product (1.578 g) as an amber waxy solid which was taken on to the next step without further purification. MS (ESI) m/z 373.4 [M]+, 375.4 [M+2]+.
