In this study, n-butyl and iso-butyl quinoxaline-7-carboxylate-1,4-di--oxide derivatives were evaluated against () (), and (). The potential mechanism of action determination was approached by analysis on and triosephosphate isomerase (TIM and TIM, respectively), and on thioredoxin reductase (). Enzyme inactivation assays were performed on recombinant GTIM and TrxR.

Tuberculosis is a worldwide health problem that warrants attention given that the current treatment options require a long-term chemotherapeutic period and have reported the development of () multidrug resistant strains. In this study, -butyl and isobutyl quinoxaline-7-carboxylate 1,4-di--oxide were evaluated against replicating and non-replicating H37Rv strains. The results showed that seventeen of the twenty-eight derivatives have minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values lower than isoniazid (2.

American trypanosomiasis is a worldwide health problem that requires attention due to ineffective treatment options. We evaluated n-butyl and isobutyl quinoxaline-7-carboxylate 1,4-di--oxide derivatives against trypomastigotes of the strains NINOA and INC-5. An in silico analysis of the interactions of 1,4-di--oxide on the active site of trypanothione reductase (TR) and an enzyme inhibition study was carried out.
