Microwave-assisted solvent-free synthesis and in vitro antibacterial screening of quinoxalines and pyrido[2, 3b]pyrazines

We report herein the microwave assisted synthesis, without solvents and catalysts, of 6-substituted quinoxalines and 7-substituted pyrido[2,3b]pyrazines. The compounds were obtained in good yields and short reaction times using the mentioned procedure and two new structures are reported. A complete ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR assignment was performed using 1D and 2D-NMR. Additionally, an in vitro screening was performed on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria using amoxicillin as positive reference. Compounds bearing a pyridyl group tended to have higher antibacterial activity, but the best activity against Bacillus subtilis and Proteus mirabilis was observed with quinoxaline derivatives.
