Procedure
To a solution of N2-cyclopropylpyrazine-2,3-diamine (2.0003 g, 13.32 mmol) in THF (66.6 ml) at 50° C. was added CDI (8.64 g, 53.3 mmol, Fluka) and stirred. The reaction flask was place in an ice bath until temperature reached 0° C. The flask was raised and water (10 mL) was added dropwise to quench. (Note: if exothermic reaction was detected then flask was placed back into ice bath until it stopped.) The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was washed with water, saturated NaCl, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. NMR showed product and imidazole. The crude product was adsorbed onto a plug of silica gel and chromatographed through a Biotage SNAP HP-silica gel column (100 g), eluting with a gradient of 1% to 6% MeOH in CH2Cl2, to provide the title compound (0.9715 g, 5.51 mmol, 41.4% yield). LCMS showed product peak at 1.00 min (m+1=177.1) 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d) δ ppm 0.94-1.02 (m, 2 H) 1.02-1.08 (m, 2 H) 2.89-3.00 (m, 1 H) 7.84-7.89 (m, 1 H) 7.89-7.94 (m, 1 H) 11.87 (s, 1 H).
