Abstract

Abstract An improved and efficient method for the preparation of the title compounds 3 is described. Thus, quinoxalinecarboxamide 1, 4-dioxides 3 are synthesized in high yields by reaction of benzofuroxan 1 with acetoacetamides 2 in the presence of catalytic amounts of calcium salts and ethanolamine. The reaction is assumed to involve a chelate mechanism with 4 as intermediate. Side reactions are studied by means of HPLC and TLC.
