Application of 5521-55-1,Some common heterocyclic compound, 5521-55-1, name is 5-Methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, molecular formula is C6H6N2O2, 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.
To a flask fitted with overhead stirrer, condenser, thermometer and nitrogen line was added 5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (1.0 eq), tert-butanol (3.5 vols) and di-isopropylethylamine (1.5 eq) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was heated to 82 C., then diphenylphosphorylazide (1.0 eq) was added over a time period of 5-14 hours, maintaining the temperature of the reaction mixture at approximately 82 C. The reaction mixture was stirred for at least 1.5 hours, and then cooled to approximately 60 C. A solution of 4% w/w sodium hydroxide (1.75 eq) was added over a period of 2 hours. The mixture was cooled to 15 C. over at least 5 hours then held at 15 C. for 3 hours. The batch was then filtered, and the solid slurry washed with water (2 vols). The batch was again slurry washed with water (2 vols). After drying at 55-60 C. overnight, the desired product was obtained as a solid (corrected yield 56-63%). 1H NMR delta (400 MHz CDCl3): 9.18 (s, 1H), 8.17 (bs, 1H), 8.11 (s, 1H), 2.51 (s, 3H), 1.56 (s, 9H)
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route 5-Methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, its application will become more common.
