Copper(II)/Rhodium(III)‐Catalyzed Three‐Component Sequential Annulation‐Olefination of 2‐Arylquinoxalines
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The quinoxaline scaffold occurs in many pharmaceuticals, natural products and organic materials. In this study, a Cu(II)/Rh(III)‐catalyzed regioselective annulation‐olefination sequence for the formation and modification of quinoxalines was developed using ethanol and water as the solvent, with relatively broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance. This protocol has been successfully applied to the derivatization of natural products and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the derivatives exhibited enhanced antiproliferative activities against A‐2780 and HCT‐116 cell lines, underscoring their potential as promising lead compounds for ovarian cancer and colon cancer treatment.
