Abstract

Copper-catalyzed condensation and C-N bond formation of 2-iodoanilenes, arylacetaldehydes, and sodium azide, in a one-pot three-component reaction enables the synthesis of quinoxalines in good yields. Under optimized reaction conditions, starting materials were reacted in the presence of CuI, K2CO3 in DMSO at 80°C for 20 hours.
