Abstract

The ten-membered fused ring of the title compound, C12H10N2O, is essentially planar in the two independent mol­ecules of the asymmetric unit (r.m.s. deviations = 0.012 and 0.015 Å).

Experimental

To a solution of 3-methylquinoxalin-2(1H)-one (Nikolaenko & Munro et al., 2004) (1 g, 6.22 mmol) in DMF (20 ml) was added propargyl bromide (0.82 ml, 6.22 mmol), potassium carbonate (1 g, 7.46 mmol) and a catalytic quantity of tetra-n-butylammonium bromide. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The solution was filtered and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol to afford 3-methyl-1-(propargyl)quinoxalin-2(1H)-one as colorless crystals.

Refinement

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 to 0.99 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 to 1.5U(C).
