In the title compound, C(18)H(13)BrN(4)O(3)S(3), the tetra-hydro-pyridine ring adopts a half-chair conformation with the central methyl-ene-C atom of the NCH(2)CH(2) unit at the flap. The dihedral angles between the tetra-hydro-pyridine ring and the pyridine and two thio-phene rings are 69.34 (13) 5.66 (13) and 68.63 (13)°, respectively, while the dihedral angle between the 1,3,4-oxadiazole and...

In the title mol-ecule, C(12)H(10)N(2)O(4), the pyridine and benzene rings are almost orthogonal [dihedral angle = 86.69 (11)°], with the pyridine N atom directed towards the centre of the benzene ring. The -NO(2) [O-N-C-C = -26.1 (3)°] and -OMe [C-O-C-C = 166.5 (2)°] substituents are not coplanar with their respective aromatic rings. In the crystal, supra-molecular layers in the ab plane are f...

The pyridine ring is a potent pharmacophore in alkaloid natural products. Nonetheless, its biosynthetic pathways are poorly understood. Rubrolones A and B are tropolone alkaloid natural products possessing a unique tetra-substituted pyridine moiety. Here, we report the gene cluster and propose a biosynthetic pathway for rubrolones, identifying a key intermediate that accumulates upon inactivati...

In the title compounds, C24H22BrN3, (I), and C24H22ClN3, (II), the 2-amino-pyridine ring is fused with a cyclo-heptane ring, which adopts a half-chair conformation. The planes of the phenyl and benzene rings are inclined to that of the central pyridine ring [r.m.s. deviations = 0.0083 (1) and 0.0093 (1) Å for (I) and (II), respectively] by 62.47 (17) and 72.51 (14)°, respectively, in (I), and b...

Catalytic reactions which involve the cleavage of an sp3 C–H bond adjacent to a nitrogen atom in N-2pyridynyl alkylamines are described. The use of Ru3(CO)12 as the catalyst results in the addition of the sp3 C–H bond across alkene bond to give the coupling products. A variety of alkenes, including terminal, internal, and cyclic alkenes, can be used for the coupling reaction. The presence of di...

In the structure of the title compound, C(10)H(11)BrN(4), the plane of the substituted 1,2,3-triazole ring is tilted by 14.84 (10)° with respect to the mean plane of the pyridine ring. The pyridine and closest triazole N atoms adopt an anti arrangement which removes any lone pair-lone pair repulsions between the N atoms. This conformation is further stabilized by weak intermolecular C-H⋯N inter...

The title compound, C19H19NO5, (I), is the product of a domino reaction between cotarnine chloride and acetyl-acetylene catalysed by copper(I) iodide. The mol-ecule of (I) comprises a fused tetra-cyclic system containing two terminal five-membered rings (pyrrole and 1,3-dioxole) and two central six-membered rings (di-hydro-pyridine and benzene). The five-membered 1,3-dioxole ring has an envelop...

In the title compound, C20H13N5O2, the two pyrazine rings are nearly coplanar with the central pyridine ring, forming dihedral angles of 2.21 (9) and 4.57 (9)°. In contrast, the strong steric hindrance caused by the ortho-carboxyl group on the phenyl ring makes this ring rotate out of the attached pyridine ring plane by 52.60 (9)°. The carboxyl group is twisted from the phenyl ring by 22.6 (1)°...

The title compound, [U(C(5)H(7)O(2))(2)O(2)(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)], exhibits a penta-gonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry around the U(VI) atom, involving two bidentate acetyl-acetonate ions and the pyridine ring of the pyridine-4-carbaldehyde oxime ligand. Hydrogen bonds exist between the OH group of the pyridine-4-carbaldehyde oxime ligand and the two O atoms of the acetyl-acetonate ions.
