Quinoxalines, also known as benzopyrazines, are heterocyclic compounds containing a ring complex consisting of a benzene ring and a pyrazine ring. It has isomerism with other naphthalene compounds such as quinazoline, phthalazine, cinnamine, etc. Fusion N-heterocyclic compounds are widely used as valuable entities for the expansion of important pharmacological agents and are considered to be an advantageous scaffold material. Among the numerous fused N-heterocyclic compounds, cinnoline, quinoxaline and quinazoline are important pharmacological agents. In medicinal chemistry, these N-heterocyclic compounds have a wide range of biological properties and can be used as synthetic intermediates, potential drug candidates and chemical probes.
Tetrahydrofuran is a heterocyclic organic compound with the molecular formula C4H8O. Tetrahydrofuran belongs to ethers and is the complete hydrogenation product of furan. It is a colorless, water-miscible organic liquid with small viscosity at normal temperature and pressure. Because of its long liquid range, it is a commonly used medium polar aprotic solvent. Its main use is as a precursor of high molecular polymers.
