A New Aminoazirine Reaction. Formation of 3,6-Dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-onesThe reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-2H-azirines 1 and 2-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxazol-5(2H)-ones 5 in MeCN or THF at 50-80° leads to 5-(dimethylamino)-3,6-dihydropyrazin-2(1H)-ones 6 (Scheme 3). Reaction mechanisms for the formation of 6 are discussed: either the oxazolones 5 react as CH-acidic heterocycles with 1 (Scheme 4), or the azirines 1 undergo a nucleophilic attack onto the carbonyl group of 5 (Scheme 6). The reaction via intermediate formation of N-(trifluoroacetyl)dipeptide amide 8 (Scheme 5) is excluded.
