Hydrochloric Acid → 3-Amino-5,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazine-2-carbohydrazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of ethyl 3-amino-5,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazine-2-carboxylate (Int. G1)(455 mg, 1.501 mmol) in MeOH (10 ml) was treated with hydrazine monohydrate (0.147 ml, 3.00 mmol) and stirred at RT overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with water (50 ml) and the pH was adjusted to pH4-5 using 1M HCl. A yellow precipitate formed which was filtered under vacuum, washed with water and air dried to afford the title compound which was used without further purification;
