Abstract
A robust and scalable method was developed for the synthesis of N,N′-dialkylated aminopyrazines by a reductive amination route. These new fluorescent pyrazine analogues were shown to absorb and emit light at relatively long wavelengths (˜50 nm) compared to the corresponding diaminopyrazines. The utility of these compounds was demonstrated by the synthesis of hydrophilic fluorescent probes with potential diagnostic applications.
Key words
GFR - renal function - pyrazine - fluorescence - reductive amination
