Efficient nucleophilic substitution reactions of pyrimidyl and pyrazyl halides with nucleophiles under focused microwave irradiation

Rapid nucleophilic displacement reactions of 2-chloropyrimidine, 2-bromopyrimidine, 5-bromopyrimidine and chloropyrazine with nucleophiles under microwave irradiation was complete within several minutes with yields up to 99%. The method using microwave irradiation is superior to the classical heating processes.
