The methodology has the advantages of mild reaction conditions with simple workup procedure, even for the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives from sterically hindered diamine. %K Quinoxalines %K Benzil %K 1 %K 2-Phenylenediamines %K 12-Tungstophosphoric acid %K Heteropoly acids %K Dichloroethane %U http://www.eurjchem.com/index.php/eurjchem/article/view/413
