Abstract

AbstractAn eco‐conscious, metal‐free protocol has been developed to synthesize a diverse collection of biologically and pharmacologically active quinoxaline and pyrazine derivatives. The protocol involves a one‐pot condensation of various 1,2‐diamines with 1,2‐diones using thiourea dioxide as a catalyst and water as a solvent at ambient temperature. Notably, the catalyst can be reused up to five times without any significant loss of efficacy. The green aspects of this method involved milder reaction conditions, higher yields with shorter reaction times, simple work‐up, non‐chromatographic separations, good reusability, and easy catalyst recovery by simple filtration. Moreover, the reaction is successfully accelerated to a multigram scale, making it favourable for production at a larger scale.
