We screened 1434 small heterocyclic molecules and identified thirteen 2,3,6-trisubstituted quinoxaline derivatives that were able to inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway and cell proliferation. In the screen, some of the hit compounds such as the ethylene group-coupled quinoxaline derivatives were shown to hold promise for use as potential small-molecule inhibitors of the Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway in non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines.

Anti-infective agents are a class of drugs used to prevent, treat, or control infections caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. They play a crucial role in modern medicine, helping to reduce the severity of infections and, in many cases, save lives. This study aims at the design and synthesis of hybrid compounds containing quinoxaline, pyrrolidine, and an azo bridge to combat antimicrobial resistance, and evaluating their antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral activities against various pathogenic strains.

This study aims to enhance the antimicrobial properties of chitosan through preparing novel chitosan Schiff bases via coupling with 4-formylphenyl 2,3-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline-6-sulfonate (B5) where, different molar ratios of B5 were used to prepare various Schiff bases with chitosan, resulting in Schiff bases coded as d5, d6, d7, and d8, respectively. The modified chitosan samples (d5, d6, d7, and d8) showed reduced crystallinity and improved thermal stability. The crystallinity index of unmodified chitosan was 64 %, which decreased to 59, 55.

This study reports a green, multi-component synthesis of 2-aminoimidazole-linked quinoxaline Schiff bases using a novel superparamagnetic acid catalyst. The catalyst consists of sulfo-anthranilic acid (SAA) immobilized on MnCoFeO@alginate magnetic nanorods (MNRs), achieving high SAA loading (1.8 mmol g) and product yields (91-97%).

Herein, novel thiazolo[4,5-]quinoxalin-2-ones 2-6 and thiazolo[4,5-]quinoxalin-2(3)-imines 7-9 were synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and H/C NMR to confirm their structures. The efficacy of the newly designed thiazolo-quinoxalines 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9 against the cotton leafworm (2nd and 4th instar larvae) was evaluated, and results revealed insecticidal activity with variable and good mortality percentages. A SAR study was also discussed.

In the last decades fungal infections became a major threat to human health having an unacceptably occurrence, a high rate of mortality and the number of patients at risk for these infections continue to increase every year. An effective, modern and very useful strategy in antifungal therapy is represented by the use of chimeric and hybrid drugs, most of them being with azaheterocycle skeleton. In this review, we present an overview from the last five years of the most representative achievements in the field of chimeric and hybrid diazine derivatives with antifungal properties.
