Application
Methyl 3,5-diamino-6-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylate (CAS 1458-01-1) is a high‑purity heterocyclic building block with a unique pyrazine core functionalized by two amino groups, a chlorine atom, and a methyl ester. It is best known as Amiloride EP Impurity A (USP Related Compound A), serving as an essential reference standard for quality control, analytical method validation, and impurity profiling of the potassium‑sparing diuretic drug Amiloride during pharmaceutical development and GMP manufacturing. The diamino and chloro groups enable diverse substitution patterns for creating structural analogs targeting kinases, proteases, and G protein‑coupled receptors. The methyl ester can be hydrolyzed to the corresponding carboxylic acid for further derivatization, making it a versatile building block for the synthesis of antibacterial drug candidates, agrochemicals (herbicides and fungicides), and specialty materials. High purity ensures reproducible results in high‑throughput screening and scalable GMP processes.
