Cc. Tzeng et al., CONDENSED 1,2,4-TRIAZINES - SYNTHETIC AND MOLECULAR MODELING STUDIES OF ,8-DIHYDRO-7-METHYLPYRAZINO[2,3-E]-1,2,4-TRIAZINES, Heterocycles, 43(5), 1996, pp. 1007-1013
,8-Dihydro-7-methylpyrazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazines (dihydroazapteridin
es) were prepared by Hinsberg reaction of 5,6-diamino-1,2,4-triazines
with bromoacetone via a regiospecific fashion. The initial Z-form Schi
ff base intermediates cyclized to give ,6-dihydro-7-methylpyrazino[2,3
-e]-1,2,4-triazines which underwent pi redistribution to afford ,8-dih
ydro-7-methylpyrazino[2,3-e]-1,2,4-triazines as final products.
