Previously synthesized 2‐(3′‐chloro‐5′,6′‐dicyanopyrazin‐2′‐yl)cyclopentan‐1‐one 1 , obtained from the reaction of 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyanopyrazine with 1‐pyrrolidino‐1‐cyclopentene, was further reacted with primary alkylamines to give mixtures of diastereomer of 5‐alkyl‐2,3‐dicyano‐5a,8a‐dihy‐dro‐5a‐hydroxycyclopentano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[2,3‐ b ]pyrazines 3a‐h in high yield. The reaction of 2‐alkylamino‐3‐chloro‐5,6‐dicyanopyrazine with 1‐pyrrolidino‐1‐cyclohexene gave 5‐alkyl‐2,3‐dicyanocyclopentano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[2,3‐ b ]pyrazines 5a‐b together with 5‐alkylamino‐2,3‐dicyano‐6‐pyrrolidinopyrazines 6a‐b . The products prepared are all of interest as potential pesticides and new fluorescent chromophores.
