Interaction of 5-aryl-4-quinoxalinyl-2,3-dihydro-2,3-furandiones with mesitylamine and methyl(phenyl)hydrazine. Synthesis and crystal and molecular structure of 2-(1-mesityl-4,5-dioxo-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-3-pyrollyl)-3-phenylquinoxaline

The interaction of 5-aryl-4-quinoxaline-2,3-dihydro-2,3-furandiones with mesitylamine and methyl(phenyl) hydrazine results in the formation of 1-substituted 5-aryl-4-quinoxalinyl-2,3-dihydro-2,3-pyrrolediones. The crystal and molecular structure of the 1-mesityl-5-phenyl derivative was investigated by X-ray diffraction.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Z. G. Aliev, N. Yu. Lisovenko, L. O.
