Synthesis of new 2-acetyl and 2-benzoyl quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives as anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis agents
摘要:
A series of 2-acetyl and 2-benzoyl-6(7)-substituted quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antituberculosis activity. The results show that 2-acetyl-3-methylquinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives with chlorine, methyl or methoxy group in position 7 of the benzene moiety (compounds 2, 4 and 6, respectively) and unsubstituted (3) have good antitubercular activity, exhibiting EC90/MIC values between 0.80 and 4.29. In conclusion, the potency, selectivity and low cytotoxicity of these compounds make them valid leads for synthesizing new compounds that possess better activity.

Twenty-four quinoxaline derivatives were evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity using BacTiter-Glo microbial cell viability assay. Five compounds showed MIC values <3.1 μM and IC50 values <1.5 μM in primary screening and therefore, they were moved on for further evaluation. Compounds 21 and 18 stand out, showing MIC values of 1.6 μM and IC50 values of 0.5 and 1.0 μM, respectively. Both compounds
We report on the simple and quick synthesis of quinoxaline 1,4-dioxides in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation. Heating of various benzofuroxans and beta-ketoesters or 1,3-diketones adsorbed on silica gel in a microwave oven for two minutes affords diverse biologically attractive quinoxaline 1,4-dioxides in high to excellent yields. Silica gel functions not only as support using microwave but also as catalyst and dehydration reagent.
