Iron-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of quinoxalines: Transfer hydrogenative condensation of 2-nitroanilines with vicinal diols

Here, we report iron-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of quinoxalines via transfer hydrogenative condensation of 2-nitroanilines with vicinal diols. The tricarbonyl (η4-cyclopentadienone) iron complex, which is well known as the Kn?lker complex, catalyzed the oxidation of alcohols and the reduction of nitroarenes, and the corresponding carbonyl and 1,2-diaminobenzene intermediates were generated in situ. Trimethylamine N-oxide was used to activate the iron complex. Various unsymmetrical and symmetrical vicinal diols were applied for transfer hydrogenation, resulting in quinoxaline derivatives in 49-98% yields. A plausible mechanism was proposed based on a series of control experiments. The major advantages of this protocol are that no external redox reagents or additional base is needed and that water is liberated as the sole byproduct. This journal is

Efficient synthesis of quinoxalines from 2-nitroanilines and vicinal diols via a rutheniumcatalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy

Via a ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy, we have demonstrated a one-pot method for efficient synthesis of quinoxalines from 2-nitroanilines and biomass-derived vicinal diols for the first time. In such a synthetic protocol, the diols and the nitro group serve as the hydrogen suppliers and acceptors, respectively. Hence, there is no need for the use of external reducing agents. Moreover, it has the advantages of operational simplicity, broad substrate scope and the use of renewable reactants, offering an important basis for accessing various quinoxaline derivatives.

Iridium-Catalyzed [4+2] Annulations of β-Keto Sulfoxonium Ylides and o-Phenylenediamines: Mild and Facile Synthesis of Quinoxaline Derivatives

A synthetic method for quinoxaline derivatives from the [4+2] annulation of β-keto sulfoxonium ylides and o-phenylenediamine by using (Cp*IrCl2)2 catalyst is described. This novel protocol features mild reaction conditions, moderate to excellent yields, wide substrate scope, and high functional-group compatibility. Moreover, this cyclization strategy was successfully applied in late-stage modification for structurally complex bioactive compounds.

Nickel-Catalyzed Direct Synthesis of Quinoxalines from 2-Nitroanilines and Vicinal Diols: Identifying Nature of the Active Catalyst

The inexpensive and simple NiBr2/1,10-phenanthroline system-catalyzed synthesis of a series of quinoxalines from both 2-nitroanilines and 1,2-diamines is demonstrated. The reusability test for this system was performed up to the seventh cycle, which afforded good yields of the desired product without losing its reactivity significantly. Notably, during the catalytic reaction, the formation of the heterogeneous Ni-particle was observed, which was characterized by PXRD, XPS, and TEM techniques.

Cooperative iridium complex-catalyzed synthesis of quinoxalines, benzimidazoles and quinazolines in water

Herein, an efficient methodology for the synthesis of a diverse class of N-heterocyclic moieties, such as quinoxalines, benzimidazoles and quinazolines, was developed in water using bio-renewable alcohols. The quinoxalines were successfully synthesized from a wide range of diamines and nitroamines with diols in air. Interestingly, benzimidazoles and quinazolines were synthesized with excellent isolated yields without using any external base. Finally, the preparative scale synthesis of various N-heterocycles and pharmaceutically active quinoxalines established the practicability of this protocol. For this iridium system, a metal-ligand cooperative mechanism was proposed based on kinetic and DFT studies.

One-Pot Protocol for the Synthesis of Imidazoles and Quinoxalines using N-Bromosuccinimide

N-bromosuccinimide (NBS)-mediated one-pot, green, efficient and practical synthesis of substituted imidazoles and quinoxalines has been achieved by the reaction of styrenes with N-arylbenzamidines and o-phenylenediamines, respectively, in a water:1,4-dioxane mixture. The reaction involves formation of an α-bromo ketone as an intermediate in the presence of NBS and water, followed by condensation with the N-arylbenzamidine and o-phenylenediamine. Use of an inexpensive NBS as a bromine source as well as an oxidant, water as a solvent and readily available starting materials makes this protocol environmentally benign and economically viable. Substituted imidazoles and quinoxalines were obtained in good to excellent yields with wide functional group compatibility. (Figure presented.).

The reaction of α-hydroxy ketones with 1,2-diamines in the presence of triphenylstibane (10 mol%) as catalyst led to the formation of 2-arylquinoxalines in moderate to good yield under aerobic conditions. This reaction is the first example of oxidative cy

Copper-Catalyzed Cascade Cycloamination of α-Csp3-H Bond of N-Aryl Ketimines with Azides: Access to Quinoxalines

A copper-catalyzed cycloamination of α-Csp3-H bond of N-aryl ketimines with sodium azide has been developed. This methodology provides an efficient access to quinoxalines and features mild reaction conditions and readily available ketimines with diverse functional group tolerance.

I2 catalyzed tandem protocol for synthesis of quinoxalines via sp3, sp2 and sp C-H functionalization

One-pot, atom-economic synthesis of quinoxalines has been achieved through generation of arylglyoxal from easily available ethylarenes, ethylenearenes and ethynearenes, and subsequent condensation with o-phenylenediamines. Catalytic I2 with TBHP as an oxidant in DMSO is the system of choice for this domino reaction involving C-H functionalization/oxidative cyclization. This metal-free, mechanistically distinct and functional group tolerant tandem approach could be a powerful complement to traditional approaches for the synthesis of quinoxalines. This journal is

A selective, expeditious and sustainable entry en route to benzopyrazines and bis-benzopyrazines

A convenient green synthesis of benzopyrazines and bis-benzopyrazines has been performed by the condensation of diversely substituted diamines and dicarbonyl compounds in water using indium powder as catalyst under controlled microwave exposure. The effects of microwave power, and temperature on this reaction are investigated in detail to identify the best condition. A wide range of diversely substituted diamines and dicarbonyl compounds produce excellent yield of the corresponding benzopyrazines and bis-benzopyrazines. A comparative study has also been made between microwave-induced procedure and conventional method. The present method is atom-economical, environmentally friendly, and affords synthetically useful and challenging products very rapidly.
