title: [Study on the ultraviolet spectrum in a series of 2 (1H)-quinoxalin-2-one derivatives].
abstract: A series of 2 (1H)-quinoxalin-2-one derivatives: 1-alkyl-3-methyl-2 (1H)-quinoxalin-2-one (AMQ, alkyl = H, CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, n-C5H11, n-C16H33) have been studied by ultraviolet spectrometry. They may be used as highly active fungicides, compounds inhibiting the growth of plants, neuroprotectant for cerebral ischemia, new fluorescent probes, selective antagonists to alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methly-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) et al. Results show that as the length of the alky1 chain at the nitrogen on the 1-position increases, little changes have been found in the ultraviolet absorption spectra. All spectra have similar peak shape, a strong shoulder peak appears around 327 and 340 nm with a weaker peak around 280 nm. The peak about 340 nm in the UV spectrum is mainly due to the transition of n-->pi* and pi-->pi*, the intense absorption peak about 327 and 280 nm is as the result of the transition of pi-->pi*.
