“…Numerous methods are available for the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives which involve condensation of 1,2-diamines with α-diketones [19,20], 1,4-addition of 1,2-diamines to diazenylbutenes [21], cyclization-oxidation of phenacyl bromides [22,23] and oxidative coupling of epoxides with ene-1,2-diamines [24], 2,3-Disubstituted quinoxalines have also been prepared via the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction [25], condensation of o-phenylenediamines with 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds in MeOH/AcOH under microwave irradiation [26] and iodine catalyzed cyclocondensation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds with substituted o-phenylenediamines in DMSO [27] or CH 3 CN [28].…”
