Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

4.76 g (50.0 mmol) of 2-aminopyrazine were dissolved together with 8.76 ml (50.0 mmol) of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-butylisonitrile and 5.42 ml (50.0 mmol) of 5-bromothiophene-2-carbaldehyde in chloroform (40 ml) After addition of perchloric acid (5 ml), the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 16 h. After cooling to RT, washing was performed 2× with a sat. aq. sodium carbonate solution. The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under a vacuum. After carrying out column chromatography (EA/DCM 1:3) with the group, 11.39 g (28.0 mmol, 56% of theoretical) of [2-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-yl]-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-butyl)-amine were obtained.
