Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-chloro-3-(1-piperazinyl)pyrazine (5.94 g, 30 mmol, from Example 90, Step 1) and Na2CO3 (6.0 g, 57 mmol) in AcOH (25 mL) was added a solution of Br2 (6.00 g, 38.0 mmol) in AcOH (25 mL) dropwise at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight. Water (50 mL) was added and the solution was stirred for 30 min and then concentrated to a small volume. Water (20 mL) was added and the solution was basified to pH 9 by adding solid Na2CO3. The mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 containing 10% MeOH. The combined extract was evaporated to dryness and the residue was recrystallized from MeOH to give 7.43 g (89%) of the title compound: mp 114-115° C. HRMS m/z calcd for C8H10BrClN4 (M)+ 275.9777, found 275.9765.
