RESUMO
This article describes a method for simultaneous solid-phase synthesis of a quinoxalinone and benzimidazole scaffold library that consists of 240 members. The library was generated by using the solid-phase "split-and-pool" approach and the IRORI sorting system.

A parallel solution-phase synthesis of 2-quinoxalinol analogues is described. The key step-simultaneous reductions of m-Ar(NO2)2 to m-Ar(NH2)2 was investigated extensively. We obtained preliminary pharmacological activity of those analogues for the inhibition of LPS-induced TNF-alpha release on mouse macrophage in vitro. Two compounds revealed inhibitory activity, with IC50 values of 0.40 microM (7-amino-6-[(3-methoxypropyl)amino]-3-methyl-2-quinoxalinol) and 2.2 microM (7-amino-6-[(3-butoxypropyl)amino]-3-methyl-2-quinoxalinol), respectively.
