Discovery of N-Methylpyrazin-2-amine

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.

Electric Literature of 32111-28-7, A common heterocyclic compound, 32111-28-7, name is N-Methylpyrazin-2-amine, molecular formula is C5H7N3, 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: A magnetically stirred solution of xanthate (2.0 equiv) and pyrazine (1.0 equiv) in 1, 2-dichloroethane (1.0mmol/mL according to the xanthate) was refluxed for 15min under a flow of nitrogen. Then dilauroyl peroxide (DLP) was added portionwise (20mol % according to the xanthate) every hour until total consumption of one substrate. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. Unless otherwise specified, the crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel.

The basis of chemical reaction formula synthesis, the synthesis route is composed of some specific reactions and combined according to certain logical thinking. We look forward to the emergence of more reaction modes in the future.
