Sodium Carbonate → 3-Amino-6-[4-(dimethylcarbamoyl)phenyl]pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-amino-6-bromo-pyrazine-2-carboxylate (6.01 g, 25.9 mmol, 1.0 Eq.), 4-(dimethylcarbamoyl)phenylboronic acid (5.00 g, 25.9 mmol, 1.0 Eq.), Na2CO3 (5.49 g, 51.8 mmol, 2.0 Eq.) and Pd(PPh3)4 (2.99 g, 2.59 mmol, 0.1 Eq.) in acetonitrile (30 mL) and water (30 mL) were heated at 90° C. for 16 hours. After cooling to ambient temperature the precipitate was removed by filtration. The aqueous filtrate was acidified to pH4 by addition of 1M HCl and then extracted with dichloromethane (3×20 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give the sub-title product as a yellow solid (2.42 g, 65% Yield). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, DMSO) δ 2.95 (3H, br s), 3.00 (3H, br s), 7.49-7.51 (2H, m), 7.58 (2H, br s), 8.15 92H, d), 8.95 (1H, s), 13.25 (1H, br s) ppm; MS (ES+) 287.13.
