Reaction Steps

7-Bromo-1-(2-methoxyethyl)-3,4-dihydropyrazino[2,3-b]pyrazin-2(1H)-one. Ethyl 2-(3,5-dibromopyrazin-2-ylamino)acetate (See Example 1.C) (1 equiv), 2-methoxyethanamine (1 equiv), diisopropylethylamine (3 equiv), were suspended in dimethylsulfoxide and heated in an Emrys Biotage microwave reactor at 150° C. for 1 h. Standard ethyl acetate/water work up gave crude material, which was suspended in 99.7% acetic acid. The reaction was sealed, heated to 120° C. and allowed to stir for 2 h. The reaction was extracted in ethyl acetate. The organic layers were pooled and washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate, followed by brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. Concentration and flash column chromatography (0-100% ethyl acetate in hexanes) gave the desired product in 27% yield over two steps. MS (ESI) m/z 287.4 [M]+, 289.4 [M+2]+.
