Abstract

Rearrangement of the methyl iodides of 1- and 3-alkyl-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines in the presence of various alkylamines afforded a mixture of 8- and 6-aminoindolizines, respectively, with and without exchange of the methylamine fragment. The ratio of the products of direct and exchange recyclization was dictated by the size of the N-alkyl substituents in the reagent and starting salt. Rearrangement of the 1-alkylpyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazinium salts proceeded via the breaking of the C(3) -N(2) bond, and rearrangement of the 3-alkylpyrrolo-[1,2-a]pyrazinium salts via the breaking of the C(1) -N(2) bond.
