Pyrazine or 1,4-diazine is a symmetrical molecule as the nitrogen occupies the 1,4-positions.
Pyrazine and its derivatives are present in certain foods such as barley, coffee, peas, potatoes, etc. Occurrence of pyrazine and its importance is shown in (Table1).

 PYRAZINE DERIVATIVES (JECFA Food Additives Series 48)
Detoxication of alkyl-substituted pyrazines by side-chain oxidation and ring hydroxylation is comparable to the metabolic detoxication of alkyl-substituted pyridines in animals (Hawksworth and Scheline, 1975; Caputo et al., 1988; Blake and Beattie, 1989a; Caputo et al., 1989; Renberg et al., 1989; Oldham et al., 1990; Weidolf et al., 1992).
Pyrazine or pyrazine derivatives with a ring-activating alkoxy side-chain, such as 2-methoxypyrazine, are more susceptible to nucleophilic attack by the molybdenum hydroxylases (Beedham, 1988) and therefore undergo primarily ring hydroxylation (see Figure 1).
Pyrazine and the other alkyl-substituted pyrazine derivatives that were tested induced significant percentages of chromosomal aberrations (breaks and exchanges) in metaphase plates in Chinese hamster ovary cells with and without metabolic activation at test concentrations of 2500–40 000 µg/ml.

Functionalization of pristine C60 with the investigated pyrazine derivatives promotes the UV-vis absorption characteristics and, in turn, improves the light-harvesting efficiency of the resulting dyads 1-3 relative to pristine C60.
Photoexcitation of the pyrazine moieties in dyads 1-3 leads to the formation of their singlet excited states.
In contrast to the pyrazine models, photoexcitation of dyad 1-3 is followed by rapid intramolecular deactivation processes of the latter via energy transfer to the fullerene ground state with half-lives between 37 and 100 ps.

 2,5-DIMETHYLPYRAZINE
Pyrazine, hygroscopic white solid, is an aromatic nitrogen compound characterized by a ring structure contains 4 carbon atoms with two nitrogen atoms at 1 and 4 positions; melting at 55 - 56 C, boiling at 115 - 116 C. Pyrazine is freely soluble in water.
It is a component of the folates (vitamin B compounds) and of the isoalloxazine ring nucleus of flavins.

The quantum yield for the formation of HCN from the photodissociation of pyrazine excited at 248 nm and 266 nm is determined by IR diode probing of the HCN photoproduct.
HCN photoproducts from excited pyrazine are produced via three different dissociation channels, one that is extremely "prompt" and two others that are "late." The total quantum yield from all reaction channels obtained at low quencher gas pressures,
At high pressures the single photon "late" pyrazine dissociation is quenched, and HCN produced at high quencher gas pressures come only from the multiphoton absorption channel, which can be clearly observed to depend on laser fluence.

Pyrazine isolates were concentrated from acidified chip slurries (pH 4) by vacuum distillation.
Numerous alkylpyrazines were detected in potato chip models ranging in concentration from 7 to 542 ppb, with 2-ethyl-5-methyl pyrazine, 2,5-diethyl pyrazine and 2,5 dimethyl-3-ethyl pyrazine the predominant compounds present.
Differences in pyrazine concentrations were apparently influenced by competition between amino acids for reaction with reducing sugars present in the model system.

 Synthesis of Dimethylcathinone   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The problem of pyrazine contamination could be minimized by the use of DCM as the solvent medium as hydohalogenic solvents allow stabilization of cathinone bases, increasing the yield of desired product and decreasing the amount of by-products.
As for the pyrazine, it has a fishy unpleasant smell that first manifests itself as white crystalline compound that later, after several days, darkens to a yellow color.
Fester, in the last edition of his book "Secrets of Methamphetamine Manufacture" without realizing it, alludes to the pyrazine in his Methcathinone chapter as a contaminant which he was not familiar with but which he knew was dangerous to take intraveneously as it causes the coagulation of one's blood.

These new ligands utilize the nitrogens in pyridines and pyrazines in their structures to produce poly-dentate binding sites for coordinating to metals producing multiple crossovers with the goal of forcing over/under repeats in metal complexes.
Pyrazine was chosen as the core unit because its two nitrogens are rigidly confined to opposite sides of the aromatic ring.

 Pyrazine in Wine - Food Reference Beverage Information
All pyrazines have very low sensory detection thresholds (one to 2 ng/L in white wines and 10 — 15 ng/L in red wines) thus minute quantities represent significant aromatic and flavour characteristics in wine.
California sauvignon blanc pyrazine levels are low, and those barrel-aged show even lower levels.
Chelamn sauvingon blanc can be quite free of pyrazine aromas, probably due to weather conditions and crop levels.

 It's enough to make a Chicken Run
The team discovered that pieces of cotton wool dabbed with pyrazine and left next to chicken cages led to a five to ten percent increase in the egg mass of Leghorn chickens.
Rothschild does not yet know the underlying mechanism but it could be that the scent of the pyrazine delays the surge of luteinising hormone that releases an egg so presumably the egg takes on board more yolk and albumen before being expelled.
The team also found that birds exposed to pyrazine were more likely to remember which of their drinking vessels had been laced with the very bitter-tasting compound quinine.

The pyrazine-pyridine bond of one of the remaining pyridyl rings was then rotated in 5š increments, beginning with the pyridyl ring co-planar to the pyrazine.
These disruptions are rapidly propagated through the solid, allowing rotation of the pyrazine rings and the reordering of the lattice into a monoclinic space group.
Enthalpy calculations predict that this structure is significantly higher in energy than the conformers generated from the tetragonal form and the formation of such a structure was found to be endothermic by about 0.56 kcal.
