Abstract
The corresponding quinoxalines are formed by the reaction of arylhydrazones of α-hydroxyketones with o-phenylenediamine in glacial acetic acid. The basis for the reaction is the ability of arylhydrazones of α-hydroxycarbonyl compounds to undergo cleavage at the N-N bond in carboxylic acid media to form an arylamine and an α-diketone monoimine.
