3,4-Dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones: recent advances in synthesis and bioactivities (microreview)

  • HETEROCYCLES IN FOCUS
  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

A summary of recent synthetic approaches to 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones is discussed herein along with highlights of biological activity. The synthetic approaches include access to enantiopure 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones from chiral pool amino acids via coupling/cyclization, Michael addition/cyclization cascades, 3,3-disubstituted systems from multicomponent couplings, Bargellini reaction, or photochemical reduction.
