Summary: | Neglected tropical diseases, such as leishmaniasis, lead to serious limitations to the affected societies. In this work, a structure–activity relationship (SAR) study was developed with a series of quinoxaline derivatives, active against the promastigote forms of
Leishmania amazonensis
. As a result, a new quinoxaline derivative was designed and synthesized. In addition, a quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model was obtained [pIC

= − 1.51 − 0.96 (E
HOMO
) + 0.02 (PSA); N = 17, R

= 0.980, R

Adj
= 0.977,
s
= 0.103, and LOO-cv-R

(Q

) = 0.971]. The activity of the new synthesized compound was estimated (pIC
50
= 5.88) and compared with the experimental result (pIC
50
= 5.70), which allowed to evaluate the good predictive capacity of the model. |
