Abstract

The effects of a reaction temperature and an alkali-addition velocity on the yield of hydroxypyrazine in the condensation of glycine amide hydrochloride with glyoxal, were discussed. The lower the reaction temperature, the higher was the yield of hydroxypyrazine, unless the reaction mixture was solidified. The effect of the alkali-addition velocity on the yield of the product was like that of pH on the rate of Shiff-base formation reaction, which shows a maximum value.
