First time reported enzymatic synthesis of new series of quinoxalines—A green approach

New series of quinoxaline derivatives have been efficiently synthesized using environment friendly catalyst, i.e. enzyme. This methodology provides an alternative safest route for the synthesis of quinoxalines. Dihydroxy benzenes were used for the first time in the synthesis of quinoxalines.
