Electric Literature of 274-79-3, A common heterocyclic compound, 274-79-3, name is Imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine, molecular formula is C6H5N3, its traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route.
General procedure: Imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazines (0.3 mmol), 2-chlorobenzaldehyde (0.33 mmol, 1.1 equiv.), K2CO3 (0.9 mmol, 3 equiv.), PivOH (30 mol%), Pd(OAc)2 (7.5 mol %), and Xantphos (15 mol %) were added to a 10 mL round-bottomed flask, and then a mixed solvent of 3 mL of DMF and 30 uL of H2O was added. The mixture was stirred under air at 110 C for 24 h. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was washed with water and extracted with ethyl acetate three times. The combined organic layer was dried with anhydrous MgSO4 and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using dichloromethane/methanol as the eluent to give the pure product.
The synthetic route of 274-79-3 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
