colorless crystals. Density 1. 0311. Melting point 54 °c. Boiling point 115~116 deg C. Soluble in water and ether, and water can form a constant boiling mixture. Is a weak monobasic base. Oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid yields the N-oxide. Pyrazine itself can not occur nitration and sulfonation reaction, but ring
Nitration can occur when the active group is present on the surface. Halogenated mono-halide and polyhalopyrazine. Easy to react with nucleophile, such as with sodium amino acid reaction of 2 amino pyrazine.
can be prepared from B- hydroxyethylaminoethylamine, N-hydroxyethylethylenediamine (HOCHz CHz NHCHz CH2 NH2) in the presence of Ni/Al2 03 by dehydrogenation at high temperature.

toxicity | can be used in food (FAO/WHO,2001). |
use | used as a pharmaceutical intermediate, flavor and spice intermediate mainly used for the synthesis of meat, chocolate, peanuts and popcorn and other flavors, at the same time, it can also be used as an intermediate for the synthesis of anti-tuberculosis drug pyrazinamide, the diuretic drug ampicrol guanidine and the oral hypoglycemic drug glipizine and other medicines and pesticides. Used to make resins and polymers and pharmaceuticals |
Production method | It can be prepared by dehydrogenation of β-hydroxyethyleneamine and N-hydroxyethylenediamine (HOCH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH2) at high temperature in the presence of Ni/Al2O3. |
