Abstract

A simple, highly efficient and green procedure for the condensation of aryl and alkyl 1,2-diamines with α-diketones in the presence of catalytic amount of boron sulfonic acid (BSA) and silica trimethyl borat (STMB) and silica triisopropyl borate (STIPB), as two novel heterogeneous Lewis acid catalysts at room temperature, is described. In this method, we proved that the BrOnsted acidic power of boron sulfonic acid (BSA) is more important than its Lewis acidity. Using this method, quinoxaline derivatives as biologically interesting compounds are produced in high to excellent yields.
