Procedure

Methyl 2-aminopyrazine-3-carboxylate (5.0 g, 32.65 mmol) was dissolved in 100 mL of THF and treated with N-Bromosuccinimide (6.9 g, 39.18 mmol) all at once. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hrs, and then another 0.5 equivalents of N-bromosuccinimide was added and stirring continued for 1 hr. 10 grams of sodium sulfate were added, the mixture was vigorously stirred for 15 minutes, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue obtained was suspended in 250 mL of water and stirred rapidly. Filtration afforded the title compound, methyl 3-amino-6-bromopyrazine-2-carboxylate, as a tan solid (6.33 g).
