72. The synthesis of N-substituted 1,4-dihydroquinoxalines was also attempted, without success, applying this methodology (see next reference) and using the following amine protecting groups: Ts, Boc, COPh and COMe. In all cases the synthetic sequence was successful until the isomerization step, after which the metathesis reaction only provided recovered starting material.
