Reaction Steps

To a flask containing (3S,9aS or 9aR)-3-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4(3H,6H)-dione and (3S,9aR or 9aS)-3-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4(3H,6H)-dione (D83, Diastereoisomer 1 plus D84, Diastereoisomer 2, 976 mg, 4.9 mmol) was added 1M BH3-THF solution (49 mL) under nitrogen and the reaction was brought to reflux (80° C.) overnight. The reaction flask was cooled to 0° C. and treated with 25 mL of MeOH. Conc. HCl was added and the resulting solution was heated to 60° C. for 5 h. The reaction was checked by direct MS (m/z=184 (M+BH3)). The reaction mixture was purified by SCX, obtaining 528 mg of product.
