7-Ethyl-octahydro-2-methyl-6H-pyrazino[1,2-c]pyrimidin-6-one (Centperazine) 1, an anti-filarial drug, currently undergoing phase 111 clinical trials has been synthesized by a short, practical and economical route suitable for large scale production. Thus 2-(2-ethylaminoethyl)pyrazine obtained from 2-vinylpyrazine and ethyl amine, on ethoxycarbonylation, catalytic hydrogenation, cyclo carbamation and N-methylation yields Centperazine 1 in 23.1% overall yield.

The resolution of (+/-)-3-ethyl-8-methyl-1,3,8-triazabicyclodecan-2-one (3) using di-p-toluoyl-d-tartaric acid is described.Both the (+)- and (-)-enantiomers have been tested for their antifilarial activity against Litomosoides carinii infection in cotton rats.Though the laevo and dextro isomers of 3 have almost similar activity, the laevo isomer suppresses the microfilariaemia for a longer duration.
