Abstract:
AIMTo design and synthesize novel quinoxaline derivatives as antitumor agents.
METHODSUsing 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline as a starting compound, followed by substitution, reductive cyclization, oxidation, and chlorination, to give the key intermediate 2,7-dichloroquinoxaline (7), which reacted with different phenolic compounds to afford quinoxaline derivatives.
RESULTSThe structures of the target molecules were characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, MS, and IR.
CONCLUSIONAt concentration of 1 x 10(-4) mol x L(-1), some of the derivatives showed equal antitumor activities to XK469.
