Nitric Acid → HCID 19365489, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1.7 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid was added 0.26 g of 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrazine (present compound 1-332) at 5° C. Furthermore, 85 til of 61% nitric acid was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was added to ice water, followed by extraction with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with water and then saturated sodium chloride solution, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, which afforded 0.29 g (yield, 95%) of 3-(2,4dichloro-5-nitrophenyl)-1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrazine (present compound 1-333; m.p., 114.3° C.).
