11H-Indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one 2-(4-ethylbenzylidene)hydrazone

11H-Indeno[1,2-b]quinoxaline derivatives present an important type of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound that are useful intermediate products in organic synthesis and have potential pharmaceutical applications. A new 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one-2-(4-ethylbenzylidene)hydrazone (compound 3) was synthesized. Compound 3 is the first example of an azine derivative based on the 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxaline system. The Z,E-isomerism of compound 3 was investigated by DFT calculations. Bioavailability was evaluated in silico using ADME predictions. According to the ADME results, compound 3 is potentially highly bioavailable and has potential to be used for the treatment of neuroinflammation and ischemia–reperfusion injury.
