2(1H)-pyrazinones are present in a wide variety of natural products. In addition, their preparation constitutes a key step in the synthesis of numerous bioactive compounds. This article reviews two of the main methods for the synthesis of 2(1H)-pyrazinones from acyclic precursors: the condensation of an α-amino acid amide with a 1,2-dicarbonyl compound and the reaction between an oxalyl halide and an α-aminonitrile. This last method leads to the formation of 3,5-dihalo-2(1H)-pyrazinones which serve as a basis for obtaining highly functionalized pyrazinones.
