Electric Literature of 77112-53-9,Some common heterocyclic compound, 77112-53-9, name is Imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, molecular formula is C7H5N3O2, 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]pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (5) (1.0 equiv.) Mukaiyama?s reagent and 2-chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide (1.2 equiv.) were suspended in DMF (5.0 mL) under nitrogen atmosphere. Into the reaction mixture, aliphatic/aromatic amines (6a-l) (1.0 equiv.) and 1-methylimidazole (2.0 equiv.) were added. A homogeneous solution was formed after a gentle stirring. The reaction mixture was sealed in a microwave glass reactor and then irradiated by microwave oven at a constant temperature of 80 C with continuous stirring (1 min ramp, 15 min reaction time). After the reaction was completed, the solvent was removed through a rotary evaporator and the resulting residue was extracted by a biphasic system of 45 mL diethyl ether and 45 mL water. After the layer separation, the ether layer was dried by anhydrous sodium sulphate, followed by an evaporation of ether to get compounds 7a-l (Scheme-I).
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route Imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, its application will become more common.
