Hydrogen Peroxide → 5-({6-[3-(Difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-5-ethoxypyrazin-2-yl}methyl)pyrimidine-2-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-((6-(3-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-5-ethoxypyrazin-2-yl)methyl)pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (Example 1, 100.00 mg, 0.26 mmol) in MeOH (1.3 mL) was added aq. NaOH (0.78 mL, 0.78 mmol), followed by hydrogen peroxide (0.78 mL, 0.79 mmol) The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the precipitate filtered and washed with water to obtain the title compound as a white solid (70 mg, 67%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.93 (s, 2H), 8.27 (s, 1H), 8.12 (br s, 1H), 7.91-7.84 (m, 1H), 7.81 (t, J=1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.72 (br s, 1H), 7.52 (s, 1H), 7.44-7.02 (m, 2H), 4.42 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 4.25 (s, 2H), 1.35 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3H). [M+H]=402.26.
