Abstract

Macrocyclic cоmpounds are some of the most interesting objects in modern synthetic chemistry and, as shown in this critical review, they provide an attractive entry into quinoxaline derivatives, which are very important heterocycles from many points of view including medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry and material sciences. This review covers all the methods for creating the quinoxaline macrocycles since 1968 (when the first representatives of quinoxaline macrocycles have been synthesized) until recently. They are divided into four groups depending on the strategies of their synthesis: (1) from the macrocycles already existing, (2) from different quinoxaline derivatives, (3) from podands with quinoxaline fragments, (4) from both resorcin[4]arenes and quinoxalines, and (5) other methods (183 references).
