Abstract

A one-pot efficient and facile protocol for the direct synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives via tandem N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed umpolung of aldehydes/oxidation of the benzoins to benzils/condensation of benzils with benzene-1,2-diamines has been developed.

Key words

N-heterocyclic carbene - quinoxaline - aldehyde - benzoin - benzene-1,2-diamine
