Reaction Steps

2-Napthaldehyde (0.6 g, 3.84 mmol) and 2-amino-5-bromopyrazine (0.56 g, 3.201 mmol) were treated with Na(OAc)3BH (1.02 g, 4.802 mmol) in dichloroethane (15.0 mls) and acetic acid (0.5 mls) for 18 hours at room temperature. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with 1.0 N NaOH, washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated. Chromatography (SiO2, EtOAc:Hex, 1:1) gave 0.49 g 5-bromo-N-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)pyrazin-2-amine.
