2,3-Dichloropyrazine → 4-(3-Chloropyrazin-2-YL)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carbonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2,3-dichloropyrazine (1.219 g, 8.18 mmol) and tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carbonitrile (1 g, 9.00 mmol) in Toluene (16.36 mL) at room temperature was added LiHMDS (18.00 mL, 18.00 mmol) dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. Reaction was quenched with saturated NH4Cl and extracted with EtOAc. Two purifications with Biotage (0-10% MeOH/DCM & 0-100% EtOAc/Hexane) were conducted to isolate product.
