Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 3-amino-6-(3-pyridyl)pyrazine-2-carboxylate (2 g, 8.687 mmol) was heated in Hydrazine (1.392 g, 1.363 mL, 43.43 mmol) with a minimal amount of MeOH (5 mL) added at 80° C. for 2 hours. Water was added and the product collected by filtration, washed with methanol and dried to furnish the product as a brown solid (1.17 g, 58% Yield). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, DMSO) d 4.52 (br s, 2H), 7.43 (m, 1H), 7.71 (s, 2H), 8.54 (2H, m), 8.90 (1H, s), 9.39 (1H, s), 10.16 (1H, s) ppm; MS (ES+) 231
