Abstract
The combination of tert-butyl hypochlorite, tetrabutylammonium iodide and tetrabutylammonium chloride as oxidation system enables the transformation of ethyl 2-(N-arylcarbamoyl)-2-iminoacetates into the corresponding quinoxalinones in high yield. Oxygen exhibits a beneficial effect on the reaction.
