Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture consisting of 15 g. (0.072 mole) of 6-fluoro-2-hydrazino-3-methoxyquinoxaline and 250 ml. of triethyl orthoformate was heated with mechanical stirring in a preheated oil both at 100° C. overnight (~16 hours). The resulting mixture was then cooled to room temperature, and the precipitate which formed was subsequently recovered by means of suction filtration and washed with ethanol to ultimately afford 11.3 g (72%) of pure 7-fluoro-4-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline, m.p. 245°-246° C. (decomp.).
