Abstract
Quinoxaline derivatives having bis(fluoromethyl), bis(chloromethyl), or bis(iodomethyl) groups at the 2- and 3-positions, and various electron-donating/withdrawing substituents at the 6- and/or 7-positions, were synthesized. Their antibacterial and antifungal activities were evaluated by means of minimum inhibitory concentration assays. The relationships between the substituents and the antimicrobial activities of the quinoxaline derivatives indicate that the electrophilicity of the halomethyl units plays an important role in generating the antimicrobial activity.
