Procedure
Under an argon atmosphere, 3-benzyl-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(phenylacetylamino)pyrazine (c-16) (250 mg, 611 was dissolved in anhydrous dichloromethane (15 mL) and to this was added 1.0 M solution of boron tribromide in dichloromethane (2.15 mL, 2.15 mmol) while stirring at room temperature, and heated to reflux for 15 h. After refluxing, it was cooled to room temperature, and to this was added saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate to stop the reaction, and concentrated under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator to remove dichloromethane. The suspension was filtered and the residue was dried to give 270 mg of the crude product as a pale yellow solid. Recrystallization from methanol gave 3-benzyl-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(phenylacetylamino)pyrazine (h-coelenteramide) (c-13) as a colorless solid (107 mg, 44.1%). Rf=0.20 (dichloromethane/ethyl acetate=4/1). Mp. 259-261° C. UV (MeOH) λmax (log ε) 332 (4.38), 294.5 (4.38), 276 (4.35).
