Abstract
A reaction of 3-(α-aminobenzyl)quinoxalin-2(1H)-one with ethyl acetoacetate in boiling acetic acid is accompanied by contraction of the pyrazine ring. A rearrangement involving the fragment C(2)-C(3)-C(NH2)Ph of the quinoxaline system and the fragment C(2)-C(3) of ethyl acetoacetate yields 2-(4-ethoxycarbonyl-5-methyl-2-phenylpyrrol-3-yl)benzimidazole. Possible pathways of this reaction are considered.
