Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 3-aminopyrazine-2-carboxamide (1 g, 7.24 mmol, prepared according to International Patent Application Publication No. WO2011054922) and NaOAc (200 mg, 2.44 mmol) in HOAc (15 mL) was added Br2 (0.45 mL) dropwise at 0° C. for 1 hour, and then it was stirred at 50° C. for 8 hours. After the mixing, it was poured into ice-water and filtrated, the crude product of 3-amino-6-bromopyrazine-2-carboxamide as brown solid (1.5 g, yield: 95%) was obtained. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz) δ 8.30 (s, 1H), 7.93 (s, 2H), 7.66 (s, 2H). MS (M+H)+: 217/219.
