Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-amino-6-bromo-pyrazine-2-carboxylate (10.18 g, 43.87 mmol) was suspended in EtOH (50.90 mL) and hydrazine hydrate (4.392 g, 4.268 mL, 87.74 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture heated at 70° C. for 2 h. Water (50 mL) was added and the precipitate isolated by filtration. The solid was washed with methanol and dried under vacuum to leave the product as a pale yellow powder (9.8 g, 96% yield); 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO) d 4.53 (bs s, 2H), 7.62 (br s, 2H) and 9.78 (br s, 1H) ppm; MS (ES+) 232.06
