Abstract:
Hybrid density functional calculations are performed on a series of 21 new quinoxaline derivatives, which would likely exhibit important biological activities. Optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and (1)H chemical shifts are reported and compared with experimental data when available. In addition, melting points of 75 derivatives are predicted resorting to the Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) Theory, doing the variable selection by means of the Replacement Method and using 875 theoretical descriptors obtained from Dragon 5 software. The best relationship found has seven descriptors with R=0.8818 and R(l-10%-o)=0.7705.

Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
