20. General procedure: A solution of 1 (100 mg, 0.56 mmol) in absolute methanol (9 ml) was slowly added under nitrogen to a solution of sodium methoxide (6.7 mmol: 155 mg for sodium) in absolute methanol (15 ml) and then the mixture was refluxed for 24 h. After the removal of sodium salts, the residue was chromatographed on silica gel, eluting with ethyl acetate/cyclohexane (3:2 v/v), to afford 2a (10.3 mg, 11%) and 3a (59.3 mg, 63%).

22. 1H NMR peaks due to a pair of alkoxymethyl groups (e.g., δ 3.50, and 4.63 ppm for 3a) and a singlet peak due to two equivalent pyrazine protons (δ 8.64 ppm for 3a) appeared.
