Structure and electrochemical behaviour of 2-nitrosoquinoxaline

Abstract
It is shown by X-ray crystallography that 2-nitrosoquinoxaline crystallizes as a dimer, the structure of which is established. In solution the monomeric form predominates and the dimerisation equilibrium constant is measured. The electrochemical reduction of 2-nitrosoquinoxaline in acidic medium leads to the oxime of quinoxaline (1H)-2-one (3) through the intermediate hydroxylamine. 3 is electrochemically reoxidized directly to 2-nitrosoquinoxaline.
