Following our search for antimalarial compounds, novel series of ferrocenyl-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines 1-2 were synthesized from ferrocene-carboxaldehyde and tested for their in vitro activity upon the erythrocytic development of Plasmodium falciparum strains with different chloroquine-resistance status. The ferrocenic pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines 1-2 were prepared in 6 or 9 steps through a Barton-Zard reaction. Promising pharmacological results against FcB1, K1 and F32 strains were obtained with ferrocenyl pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines 1j-l linked by a bis-(3-aminopropyl)piperazine linker substituted by a nitrobenzyl moiety.

Article Synopsis
  • The study introduces a new method for selectively brominating pyrrolo[1,2-]quinoxalines using tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB), which is efficient and mild in its application.
  • This method allows for the production of highly selective C3-brominated or C1, C3-dibrominated compounds with good yields and broad substrate applicability.
  • Additionally, the C3-brominated product can be synthesized in larger quantities and further modified to create a variety of pyrrolo[1,2-]quinoxaline derivatives.

Pyrrolo[2,3-]quinoxaline derivatives are known to possess antioxidant, anticancer, and antibacterial properties. Here we report the successful synthesis of five derivatives of 3-hydroxy-3-pyrroline-2-one through substitution. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay was employed to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the compounds.

InCl-Catalyzed One-Pot Synthesis of Pyrrolo/Indolo- and Benzooxazepino-Fused Quinoxalines.

Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Arts and Science, Middle East Technical University, 06800 Ankara, Turkey.

In this paper, we describe an efficient InCl-catalyzed two-component reaction of 1-(2-aminophenyl)pyrroles/indoles and 2-propargyloxybenzaldehydes for the direct synthesis of 12b-benzo[6,7]1,4-oxazepino[4,5-]pyrrolo/indolo[2,1-]quinoxalines. This high atom- and step-economical one-pot process generates three new C/N-C bonds in a single synthetic operation, resulting in the formation of new six- and seven-membered heterocyclic rings. The easy availability of the starting materials, the use of the relatively inexpensive indium catalyst, and the good substrate scope are the salient features of this strategy.

A Cu-catalyzed tandem transformation of Ugi adducts through CH/NH bond functionalization reactions was reported for synthesizing a broad spectrum of indolo/pyrrolo-[1,2-]quinoxaline-6/4-carboxamide, 7-indolo[2,3-]quinoline-6-carboxamide, and 1-(cyclohexylamino)-14-indolo[2,3-][1,4]oxazino[4,3-]quinolin-4(3)-one derivatives in moderate to excellent yields. In this protocol the Ugi condensation of aromatic aldehydes, anilines, acids, and isocyanides leads to the formation of bis-amides in methanol at room temperature. This approach employed simple reaction conditions, including Ugi product as starting material, CuI, l-proline as a ligand, and cesium carbonate, in DMSO for 8 h.
