Functionalized quinoxalines represent an important class of heterocyclic nitrogen-containing compounds serving as useful intermediates in organic synthesis and as practical dyes. Quinoxaline derivatives have been shown to inhibit bacterial growth, can be utilized as anti-inflammatory and kinase inhibiting agents, and are also widely in use in research as they show great potential as anti-tumor agents. Also of interest is the use of metals in the formation of coordination polymers from quinoxaline based monomers and the analysis of the ligation modes that occur. Univalent group eleven metals are of particular interest as networks due to bonding geometries.
