OBJECTIVES Evaluation of a wide variety of pyridine N-oxide derivatives on their inhibitory activity against feline coronavirus (FIPV strain) and human SARS-CoV (Frankfurt strain-1) in cell culture. METHODS FIPV and SARS-CoV were exposed to confluent Crandel feline kidney (CRFK) and simian kidney (Vero) cell cultures in the presence of serial concentrations of the test compounds. The anti-cyt...

Hantzsch 1 ,4- dihy&opyridines are rapidly oxidized to the corresponding pyridine derivatives using zinc chlorochromate nonahydrate [Zn(C1CrO ) .9H O] in dichloromethane at room temperature. In addition to aromatization, no loss of the 4- substituent is observed

Oxidation of different types of 1,4-dihydropyridines with diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPP) and benzoyl peroxide (Bz2O2) as free radical oxidizing agents to pyridine derivatives is reported and a mechanism for this oxidation is also proposed.

Metal organic frameworks such as copper(II) monocarboxylate (formate and benzoate) pyridine derivatives and zinc(II) monocarboxylate (p-phenyl benzoate and benzoate) pyridine derivatives have been prepared. The complexes were synthesized at room temperature using pyridine or p-phenyl pyridine to grow single crystals, which were subsequently analyzed using single-crystal X-ray analysis. These st...

We have found that novel pyridine oxide derivatives are inhibitors of a wide range of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 (HIV-1) and HIV-2 strains in CEM cell cultures. Some of the compounds showed inhibitory activities against recombinant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT), whereas others were totally inactive against this viral protein in vitro. Partial retention of anti-HIV-1 activity a...

The present study describes palladium-catalyzed one pot Suzuki cross-coupling reaction to synthesize a series of novel pyridine derivatives 2a-2i, 4a-4i. In brief, Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of 5-bromo-2-methylpyridin-3-amine (1) directly or via N-[5-bromo-2-methylpyridine-3-yl]acetamide (3) with several arylboronic acids produced these novel pyridine derivatives in moderate to good yield. ...

Abstract Background The heterocyclic compounds particularly pyridine displayed clinical and biological implementation. Pyridine scaffolds have been detected in most relevant drug molecules that included provided a great possibility for treatment. Main text Pyridine-containing increasing importance medicinal application as antiviral, anticholinesterase activities, antimalarial, antimicrobial, an...

A new class of pyridine oxide derivatives as inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and/or HIV-2 replication in cell culture has been identified. The compounds, which specifically inhibit HIV-1, behave as typical nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). The most active congener of this group, JPL-133 (UC-B3096), has a 50% effective concentration of 0.05 microg...

Abstract New spiro[cyclohexane-1,2'-thiazolo[4,5- b ]pyridine derivatives ( 3 – 23 ) were investigated. Then there is in vitro antimicrobial potency against possible organisms Staphylococcus aurous ATCC-47,077, Bacillus cereus ATCC-12228, Escherichia coli ATCC-25922, Salmonella typhi ATCC-15566, and Candida albicans ATCC-10231 tested utilizing commercially available antibiotics ampicillin as a ...
