Abstract

An improved and convenient methodology for the synthesis of asymmetrically substituted pyrazines starting from 3, 5-dichloropyrazin-2 (1 H)-ones has been elaborated. Several nucleoside analogues have been synthesized containing the pyrazine core as the organic base coupled with the sugar via a triazole linkage. The beneficial effect of microwave irradiation throughout the sequence has been demonstrated.
