Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0,5 g (2,24 mmol) 5,6-diamino-7-chloro-2,3-dihydroxyquinoxaline in 20 ml water was added 0,5 ml (3,36 mmol) 40% aqueous glyoxal and 0,35 g (3,36 mmol) sodium carbonate. The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 3 h. After cooling to 25° C., the precipitate was filtered off. The crude product was stirred with water and added 1N hydrochloric acid to pH 2-3 to give 0,56 g (100%) 6-chloro-2,3-dihydroxypyrazino(2,3-f)quinoxaline, m.p. >300° C. NMR (DMSO-d6): 9.0 (2H,s), 7.73 (1H,s).
