Introduction
5-Methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentapyrazine. It is a white crystalline solid that resembles a crystal or powder in appearance. The substance is stable at room temperature, but gradually decomposes under the action of high temperature, light or oxygen.
5-Methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentapyrazine has a wide range of applications. It is an effective insecticide that is used in agriculture to control the growth and reproduction of pests.
There are two main ways to prepare 5-methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentapyrazine. One is obtained by condensation reaction of N-methylpyrazine, and then hydrogenation reaction is carried out to obtain the target product. The other is synthesized by the oxidation and reduction reaction of 5-benzoyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentapyrazine.
Safety Information: 5-Methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopentapyrazine is a toxic substance. It may have an irritating effect on the body’s nervous and respiratory systems and is irritating to the skin and eyes. Appropriate personal protective measures such as wearing protective eyewear, gloves and face shields are required during operation. The substance needs to be stored in an airtight container, away from ignition and oxidants.
