2-Amino-5,6-dichloro-3-[hydroxy(thiazol-2-yl)methyl]pyrazine → 2-Amino-5,6-dichloro-3-(thiazol-2-ylcarbonyl)pyrazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 2 ml of acetone there was dissolved 2-amino-5,6-dichloro-3-[hydroxy(thiazol-2-yl)methyl]-pyrazine (44 mg) prepared in Step C above, after which manganese dioxide (120 mg) was added, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 5 hours at room temperature. The manganese dioxide was filtered off, the remaining precipitate washed twice with acetone, and the filtrate concentrated to dryness to give a crystalline product (29 mg).
