The synthesis, characterization and biological activity of Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes derived from tridentate Schiff base ligand 3-hydroxy-4-(pyridine-2-yl methylene amino) benzoic acid (HL) was obtained by the condensation of 2-Pyridine carboxaldehyde with 4-amino 3-hydroxy benzoic acid has been described. The complexes were characterized based on elemental analyses, molar conductivity measur...

In the present study, a series of 2-substituted-pyridines were synthesized and characterized by IR, (1)H-NMR and Elemental Analysis. The compounds were assayed against seizures induced by maximal electro shock (MES) and pentylenetetrazole (scMet). Neurologic deficit was evaluated by the rotarod test. The decrease in the elevated motor activity by introceptive chemical stimuli (amphetamine antag...

quantitative structure-activity relationship (qsar) studies of a series of substituted 3-hydroxy-pyridine-4-ones and 3-hydroxy-pyran-4-ones as antibacterial and antifungal agents against a variety of microorganisms were performed. multiple linear regression approach was used as variable selection method. the antimicrobial activities of these compounds against staphylococcus aureus, aspergilus n...

Twelve phosphonopropionates derived from 2-hydroxy-3-imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridin-3- yl -2-phosphonopropionic acid (3-IPEHPC) were synthesized and evaluated for their activity as inhibitors of protein geranylgeranylation. The nature the substituent in C6 position imidazo[1,2- ]pyridine ring was responsible compound's against Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (RGGT). most active disrupted Rab11A prenyla...

D-Amino acid oxidase (DAAO) catalyzes the oxidation of d-amino acids including d-serine, a coagonist of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor. We identified a series of 4-hydroxypyridazin-3(2H)-one derivatives as novel DAAO inhibitors with high potency and substantial cell permeability using fragment-based drug design. Comparisons of complex structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank as well as ...

The title compound, C(10)H(13)NO(3), was obtained as a by-product of the aldolization reaction of furo[3,4-c]pyridin-3(1H)-one with thio-phene-2-carboxaldehyde. The substituents on the pyridine ring are nearly coplanar, with an 8.1 (2)° rotation of the hydroxmethyl group from this plane. The mol-ecules assemble in the crystal structure as chains via O-H⋯N hydrogen bonding between the pyridine N...

The syn theses of diaquabis (3-hydroxyflavonato) cobalt (II) and bis(pyridine) bis (3hydroxyflavonato)cobalt(II) are described. Results from infrared spectra clearly show that the 3-hydroxyflavonato anion forms a chelate through the 3-hydroxy 4-keto groups. The electronic spectra of both complexes indicate that cobalt(II) has an octahedral geometry. Quantitative analyses of the isolated product...

Isothiazolopyridines, pyridothiazines and pyridothiazepines are important compounds that possess valuable biological activities. This paper reports on the synthesis of these compounds using both conventional chemical methods and modern microwave techniques. 3-Bromo-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide, 5-arylazo-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxam...

derivatives of pyridine-4-one are iron chelators with various biological activities including antifungal, anti-malarial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. this study was aimed to evaluate the analgesic effect of four new derivatives of 3-hydroxy pyridine-4-one in animal models. acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin tests were used to assess the analgesic activity in mal...

4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK, 1) is a potent tobacco-specific lung carcinogen believed to play a key role in the development of lung cancer in smokers. Metabolic activation of NNK to DNA damaging reactive intermediates proceeds via α-hydroxylation pathways. The end products of these pathways are excreted in the urine of smokers as 4-oxo-4-(3-pyridyl)butanoic acid (keto ac...
