The mixture was warmed to 65° C. for 10 minutes, then it was concentrated to approximately 200 ml and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were washed with dilute aqueous NaHCO3 solution and brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified via flash chromatography (gradient of hexane/EtOAc 9:1 to 7:3) to afford the title compound (3.86 g, 81%, 92:8 mixture of 7-chloro-2-methyl-8-nitro-quinoxaline and 6-chloro-2-methyl-5-nitro-quinoxaline). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=8.81 (s, 1H), 8.15 (d, J=9.1 Hz, 1H), 7.74 (d, J=9.1 Hz, 1H), 2.79 (s, 3H). MS (ES+): 224 (M+H)+.
