Water → 3-Bromo-5-(4-(isopropylsulfonyl)phenyl)pyrazin-2-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

NBS (1.926 g, 10.82 mmol) was added to a solution of 5-(4-isopropylsulfonylphenyl)pyrazin-2-amine (3 g, 10.82 mmol) in DMF at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 min and then added to a rapidly stirring water (50 ml). The precipitate was filtered off and dried in vacuo. The solid obtained was slurried in EtOAc, filtered off and dried in vacuo to provide 3-bromo-5-(4-(isopropylsulfonyl)phenyl)pyrazin-2-amine used which was as such without further purification (8 g, 62%). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.80 (s, 1H), 8.2 (d, 2H), 7.90 (d, 2H), 7.2 (s, 2H), 3.4-3.5 (m, 1H), 1.20 (d, 6H); LC/MS m/z 358.0 [M+H]+.
