Synthesis of quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide analogues and crystal structure of 2-carbomethoxy-3-hydroxyquinoxaline-di-N-oxide

A series of quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide analogues were prepared from benzofurazan N-oxide derivatives and β-diketone ester compounds by the improved Beirut reaction. The structures of the target products were characterized by NMR, MS, IR and elemental analysis measurements, and that of 2-carbomethoxy-3-hydroxyquinoxaline- di-N-oxide was further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Its crystal structure belongs to the monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 14.4320 (12) ?, b = 10.7514 (9) ?, c = 13.2728 (11) ?, V = 1958.5 (3) ? 3, Z = 8. The X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals that quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide displays acyloin-endiol tautomerism.     

The reactions of benzofuroxan with carbonyl compounds on the surface of solid catalysts

The cyclocondensations of benzofuroxan 1a with carbonyl compounds were smoothly and efficiently carried out by the adsorption of the components on the surface of silica gel or a molecular sieve to form a 2,3-disubstituted quinoxaline 1,4-dioxide. When the reactions using a molecular sieve 3A (powder) were carried out at 90°, the actual reaction times were reduced to 0.5-2 hours. Although Duerckheimer has reported the isolation of only the 7-substituted quinoxaline 1,4-dioxide when 5-methoxybenzofuroxan 1e was allowed to react with ethyl acetoacetate 2j , it produced only the 6-methoxy isomer as the reaction product by our method. 5-Carboxybenzofuroxan 1f did not react with the carbonyl compound.     

A new synthesis of 1,5-dihydropyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxalines and 2-(pyrazol-4-yl)quinoxalines

The reaction of 6-chloro-2-(l-methylhydrazino)quinoxaline 1-oxide 3 with acetylenedicarboxylates gave the 8-chloro-1-memyl-1,5-dihydropyridazino[3,4-b]quinoxaline-3,4-dicarboxylates 4a,b and 2-(pyrazol-4-yl)quinoxaline 1-oxides 5a,b . The formation of compounds 4a,b would follow the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction, subsequent 1,2-hydrazino migration, and then dehydrative cyclization, while the production of compounds 5a,b would proceed via the addition of the hydrazino group to acetylene-dicarboxylate leading to the construction of a pyrazole ring, followed by rearrangement of the pyrazole ring. Compounds 5a,b were deoxidized with phosphoryl chloride/N,N-dimethylformamide to change into the 4-(quinoxalin-2-yl)pyrazole-3-carboxylates 8a,b .     

Quinoxaline-benzimidazole rearrangement in the synthesis of benzimidazole-based podands

Alkylation of 3-benzoylquinoxalin-2(1H)-one with 1,5-dibromo-3-oxapentane, 1,8-dibromo-3,6-dioxaoctane, and α,ω-dihaloalkanes with different lengths of the polymethylene chain gave the corresponding quinoxaline podands. In the reaction with 1,2-dibromoethane, the N,O-rather than N,N′-alkylation product was obtained. The reaction of the obtained quinoxaline-based podands with benzene-1,2-diamine followed the quinoxaline-benzimidazole rearrangement pattern with formation of 2-(3-phenylquinoxalin-2-yl)benzimidazole-based podands.     

Synthesis of Novel Drug‐Like Small Molecules Based on Quinoxaline Containing Amino Substitution at C‐2

A series of novel “drug‐like” small molecules based on quinoxaline containing amino substitution at C‐2 were synthesized. All these molecules were prepared either via the reaction of 2‐phenyl‐3‐(piperazin‐1‐yl)quinoxaline with acyl bromides or benzyl bromides or various carboxylic acids or via the reaction of 2‐chloro‐3‐phenylquinoxaline with various amines. The structures of these novel compounds were confirmed by spectral analysis. The strategy used is simple and efficient and afforded good yields of quinoxaline derivatives.     

An improved understanding of the reaction of bis(bromomethyl)quinoxaline 1-N-oxides with amines using substituent effects

The reaction of bis(bromomethyl)quinoxaline N-oxides with amines is interesting from a reaction mechanism perspective and due to the reported biological activity of compounds in this general class. The complex mechanism of this reaction (particularly in the case of primary amines) is complicated further when C6 or C7 substituted mono-N-oxides are considered. In this study, the synthesis and subsequent characterization of a series of 2,3-bis(bromomethyl)quinoxaline 1-N-oxides is reported. Experimental and computational evidence is used to show that the observed product ratios from the reaction with diethylamine reflect the influence of both the C6/C7 substituent and the N-oxide functional group on the initial nucleophilic substitution reaction.     

Identification and quantification of six major α-dicarbonyl process contaminants in high-fructose corn syrup

High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a widely used liquid sweetener produced from corn starch by hydrolysis and partial isomerization of glucose to fructose. During these processing steps, sugars can be considerably degraded, leading, for example, to the formation of reactive α-dicarbonyl compounds (α-DCs). The present study performed targeted screening to identify the major α-DCs in HFCS. For this purpose, α-DCs were selectively converted with o-phenylendiamine to the corresponding quinoxaline derivatives, which were analyzed by liquid chromatography with hyphenated diode array-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-DAD-MS/MS) detection. 3-Deoxy-D-erythro-hexos-2-ulose (3-deoxyglucosone), D-lyxo-hexos-2-ulose (glucosone), 3-deoxy-D-threo-hexos-2-ulose (3-deoxygalactosone), 1-deoxy-D-erythro-hexos-2,3-diulose (1-deoxyglucosone), 3,4-dideoxyglucosone-3-ene, methylglyoxal, and glyoxal were identified by enhanced mass spectra as well as MS/MS product ion spectra using the synthesized standards as reference. Addition of diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid and adjustment of the derivatization conditions ensured complete derivatization without de novo formation for all identified α-DCs in HFCS matrix except for glyoxal. Subsequently, a ultra-high performance LC-DAD-MS/MS method was established to quantify 3-deoxyglucosone, glucosone, 3-deoxygalactosone, 1-deoxyglucosone, 3,4-dideoxyglucosone-3-ene, and methylglyoxal in HFCS. Depending on the α-DC compound and concentration, the recovery ranged between 89.2% and 105.8% with a relative standard deviation between 1.9% and 6.5%. Subsequently, the α-DC profiles of 14 commercial HFCS samples were recorded. 3-Deoxyglucosone was identified as the major α-DC with concentrations up to 730 μg/mL HFCS. The total α-DC content ranged from 293 μg/mL to 1,130 μg/mL HFCS. Significantly different α-DC levels were not detected between different HFCS specifications, but between samples of various manufacturers indicating that the α-DC load is influenced by the production procedures.

The reaction of the quinoxaline N‐oxides 7a,b with diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate gave the 1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxaline‐4,4‐dicarboxylates 8a,b , whose reaction with N‐bromosuccinimide or N‐chlorosuccinimide afforded the 3‐halogeno‐1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxaline‐4,4‐dicarboxylates 9a‐d. The reaction of compounds 9a‐d with hydrazine hydrate resulted in hydrolysis and decarboxylation to provide the 3‐halogeno‐1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxaline‐4‐carboxylates 10a‐d , whose reaction with nitrous acid effected oxidation to furnish the 3‐halogeno‐4‐hydroxy‐1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxaline‐4‐carboxylates 11a‐d , respectively. The reaction of compounds 11a‐d with hydrazine hydrate afforded the 3‐halogeno‐1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxalin‐4‐ols 12a‐d , whose oxidation provided the 3‐halogeno‐1‐methylpyridazino[3,4‐b]quinoxalin‐4(1H)‐ones 6a‐d , respectively. Compounds 6a‐d had antifungal activities in vitro.

The antibacterial and antifungal activities of some the synthesised compounds were studied.     

An influence of a basic side chain moiety on the tautomer ratio between the enamine and methylene imine forms in azole condensed quinoxalines

The reaction of 7-chloro-4-(2-cyano-2-hydroxyvinyl)tetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxaline 2a with 4-aminopyridine, p-toluidine or p-aminophenol gave 7-chloro-4-(4-pyridylcarbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-α]-quinoxaline 7a , 7-chloro-4-(p-tolylcarbamoylmethylene)4, 5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxaline 8a or 7-chloro-4-(p-hydroxyphenylcarbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxaline 9a , respectively. The reaction of 7-chloro-4-(2-cyano-2-hydroxyvinyl)-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-α]quinoxaline 2b with 4-aminopyridine, p-toluidine or p-aminophenol afforded 7-chloro4-(4-pyridylcarbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo-[4,3-α]quinoxaline 7b , 7-chloro-4-(p-tolylcarbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-α]quinoxaline 8b or 7-chloro-4-(p-hydroxyphenylcarbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-α]quinoxaline 9b , respectively. The reaction of compound 2a with 2-aminopyridine or 3-aminopyridine provided 7-chloro-4-(2-pyridyl-carbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxaline 10 or 7-chloro-4-(3-pyridyl-carbamoylmethylene)-4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxaline 11 , respectively. Compounds 7a,b (4-pyridylcarbamoyl) predominated as the enamine tautomer A in a trifluoroacetic acid solution, while compounds 8a,b (p-tolylcarbamoyl) and compounds 9a,b (p-hydroxyphenylcarbamoyl) coexisted as the enamine A and methylene imine B tautomers in a trifluoroacetic acid solution. Moreover, the ratio of the enamine tautomer A elevated in an order of compound 11 (3-pyridylcarbamoyl), compound 10 (2-pyridylcarbamoyl) and compound 7a (4-pyridylcarbamoyl), reflecting an order of the increase in the pKa values of the aminopyridine side chain moieties. In general, the ratio of the enamine tautomer A was higher in the basic carbamoyl derivatives 7–11 than in the neutral ester derivatives 3a,b . From these results, the basic side chain moiety of the tetrazolo[1,5-α]quinoxalines 7a-11 or 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-α]quinoxalines 7b-9b was found to increase the ratio of the enamine tautomer A in trifluoroacetic acid media.

Photochemische reaktionen von äthern mit 4-methylcinnolin und chinoxalinen

1. 4-Methylcinnoline on irradiation in ethers produces the photoproducts 2–6 by a 1.4 addition of the ethers. 2. Quinoxaline reacts with ethers to produce the quinoxalines 8, 12 and 13 by what appears superficially to be a substitution process. Reaction of 2,3-dimethylquinoxaline with tetrahydrofuran gives as the main product 16 by 1.2 addition, and 2-(t-butyl)-quinoxaline gives the dihydroquinoxaline derivatives 17a, b . Because of the known easy autoxidation of 1,2-dihydroquinoxaline we believe that the intermediate in the photolytic reaction of quinoxaline, yielding 8, 12 and 13 , is also the 1.2 addition product. 3. The mass-spectrometric behaviour of the cinnoline and quinoxaline derivatives has been discussed.     

Electrospray tandem mass spectrometric analysis of novel synthetic quinoxalinone derivatives

Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) using a hybrid QqToF-MS/MS instrument has aided the structural characterization and differentiation of a novel series of medicinal synthetic 1-N-glycoside-quinoxalinone derivatives. These derivatives 7 and 8 are formed by an amino bond between the cyclic N-1 of the quinoxaline moiety and the C-6 position of a fully protected methyl or allyl alpha-D-mannofuranoside 3 and 4, and subsequent deprotection of the mannopyranoside moiety. In general the novel synthetic quinoxaline derivatives afforded the protonated molecules in ESI. The breakdown routes of the protonated molecules were rationalized by conducting low-energy CID-MS/MS analyses. In addition, re-confirmation of the various established fragmentation routes was achieved by conducting a series of ESI-CID-QqTof-MS/MS product ion scans on various selected precursor ions, which were initiated by CID in the atmospheric pressure/vacuum interface using a higher declustering potential. ESI-QqToF-MS/MS analysis has proven to be a specific and very sensitive method for the structural identification in the gas phase of these novel glycoquinoxalinamine derivatives.     

Synthesis and characterizations of some new selenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline derivatives

In this paper, we present the synthesis of new selenoloquinoxaline derivatives starting from 2-chloroquinoxaline-3-carbonitrile 1 . The compound 1 was subjected to a reaction with selenium metal in the presence of NaBH₄ as a reducing agent in ethanol, under a nitrogen atmosphere. This reaction resulted in the formation of the sodium salt of 3-cyanoquinoxaline-2-selenolate, which was subsequently reacted with α-halogenated carbonyl compounds in situ. This reaction produced a series of newly synthesized 3-aminoselenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-2-substituents. Ethyl 3-aminoselenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-2-carboxylate 3a was hydrolyzed by sodium hydroxide to give the corresponding sodium salt 9 . This salt was then refluxed with acetic anhydride to produce oxazinone compound 10 . The reaction of compound 10 with ammonium acetate afforded pyrimidoselenolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline derivative 11 . Compound 11 was then chlorinated using phosphorous oxychloride to give the corresponding chlorocompound.
