A variety of 2,3-bifunctionalized quinoxalines (6-14) have been prepared by the condensation of 1,6-disubstituted-hexan-1,3,4,6-tetraones (1-4) with o-phenylenediamine, (R,R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and p-nitro-o-phenylenediamine. It is concluded that strong intramolecular N-H----O bonds in the favoured keto-enamine form may be responsible for the minimal biological activities observed in DNA footprinting, antitubercular, anti-fungal and anticancer tests with these hyper π-conjugated quinoxaline derivatives. However, subtle alteration by addition of a nitro group affecting the charge distribution confers significant improvements in biological effects and binding to DNA.
通过 1,6-二取代己-1,3,4,6-四酮(1-4)与邻苯二胺、(R,R)-1,2-二氨基环己烷和对硝基邻苯二胺的缩合,制备了多种 2,3-双官能团喹喔啉(6-14)。研究得出的结论是,这些超π-共轭喹喔啉衍生物在 DNA 追踪、抗结核、抗真菌和抗癌试验中具有极低的生物活性,这可能是由于它们的酮烯胺形式具有较强的分子内 N-H----O 键。然而,通过添加一个影响电荷分布的硝基,可使生物效应和与 DNA 的结合发生微妙的变化。
