Product Information
- Quinoxaline, 2,6-dichloro-
2,6-Dichloroquinoxaline is a synthetic compound that belongs to the quinoxalines. It is a sulfa drug, which is an organic compound that contains a sulfonamide group. This group has an electron-donating nitrogen atom and two electron-withdrawing groups: one on the sulfur atom and one on the nitrogen atom. This drug is used in the treatment of infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics. 2,6-Dichloroquinoxaline has been shown to bind to DNA and inhibit bacterial growth. It also binds to chloride ions, thereby inhibiting bacterial cell membrane function. The synthesis of this drug includes a cross-coupling reaction with chloroacetonitrile as a nucleophile and 2-chloropyridine as an electrophile. Impurities in this product may include hydroxylamine and acetone in amounts greater than 0.1%.
