Synthesis of Highly Functionalized 2(1H)-Pyrazinone 3-Carboxamide Scaffolds

Synthesis of highly functionalized 2(1H)-pyrazinone 3-carboxamide derivatives is reported. A one-pot, two-step process including the base-mediated reaction of N,N-disubstituted aminoacetonitrile derivatives 18 with 3,5-dihalo-2(1H)-pyrazinones 1 afforded substituted aminoacetonitrile pyrazinone derivative 19, which on subsequent oxidation followed by transamidation of the resulting intermediate with primary or secondary amines gave the corresponding highly functionalized 2(1H)-pyrazinone 3-carboxamide derivatives 21.

Synthesis of 5,5'-Dialkyl-6,6'-dichloro-2, 2'-bipyridines

Abstract 5,5′-Dialkyl-6,6′-dichloro-2,2′-bipyridines were synthesized starting from 3-substituted 2-chloro-6-iodopyridines using Pd-catalyzed coupling conditions. 6-Alkyl-3,5-dichloro-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-ones were excellent precursors for the synthesis of these functionalized 2-iodo-6-chloropyridines.
