New imidazo [1, 2-a] quinoxaline derivatives have been synthesised by condensation of an appropriate α-aminoalcohol with a quinoxaline followed by intramolecular cyclisation and nucleophilic substitutions. Their phosphodiesterase inhibitory activities have been assessed on a preparation of the PDE4 isoform purified from a human alveolar epithelial cell line (A549). These studies showed potent inhibitory properties that emphasize the importance ...
