Procedure

Sodium methoxide (6.5 ml) (30% by weight in methanol) was dissolved in methanol (75 ml) at room temperature. Dimethyl malonate (3.7 ml) was added dropwise at ambient temperature over a period of 20 minutes and the reaction stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. Methyl 3-aminopyrazine-2-carboxylate (5.0 g) was added in portions at ambient temperature over a period of 40 minutes. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 3 days, and then allowed to cool. The solvent was concentrated. The residue was dissolved in water and acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid (36% by weight in water). The precipitate was isolated, washed with water, methanol and ethyl acetate, and dried under high vacuum to give 8-hydroxy-6-oxo-5,6-dihydro-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester as a beige solid (4.16 g). 1H-NMR (d6-DMSO): 3.80 (s, 3H), 8.59 (s, 1H), 8.70 (s, 1H) ppm.
