Reaction Steps

Dissolve (S)-Methyl 3-phenyl-2-(pyrazine-2-carboxamido)propanoate (57.65 g) in 572 ml of acetonitrile and add 11.7 ml water and 84 ml of triethylamine. Cool the reaction mixture to 0° C. on ice bath and add 175.0 g of LiBr in several portions at vigorous stirring. After 10 minutes of stirring, increase the temperature to ambient temperature. (NB. A HPLC sample showed 99.97% conversion with 98.78% content of the desired product).
