Researchers who often do experiments know that organic synthesis is a process of preparing more complex target molecules from simple raw materials through one or more chemical reactions. Generally, it requires fewer steps, and cheap raw materials. 55557-52-3, name is 3-Chloropyrazine-2-carbonitrile, A new synthetic method of this compound is introduced below., Computed Properties of C5H2ClN3
The starting compound 3-chloropyrazine-2-carboxamide was synthesized using two published procedures. The first method was classified as less effective and was based on the homolytic amidation of 2-chloropyrazine. Thus, 2-chloropyrazine (0.17 mol) was dissolved in formamide (3.7 mol), heated to 90 C and ammonium peroxodisulphate (0.18 mol) was added portionwise over one hour period. This mixture reacted for another one hour at 90 C and then it was left to stand for 24 h at laboratory temperature. Dilution with 100 mL of water was followed by filtration and this filtrate was extracted continuously with chloroform for 16 h [34,42]. The mixture of three positional isomers was separated by flash chromatography using silica gel as stationary phase. The second process used 3-chloropyrazine-2-carbonitrile, which was submitted to partial hydrolysis of the nitrile group. The powdered carbonitrile (0.104 mol) was added little by little into the reaction mixture of concentrated hydrogen peroxide (0.95 mol) and water (195 mL) heated to 50 C. The pH was adjusted and regulated around a value of 9 using an 8% solution of sodium hydroxide and the temperature of the reaction was regulated between 55 and 60 C. The reaction was stopped after 2.5 h and was cooled to 5 C. Newly-emerged crystals were removed by suction and recrystallized from ethanol [42].
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.
