A core 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[4,3-c]pyridine-4-one scaffold is elaborated at C-3(Me) by base-mediated aldol condensation to give new 3-alkenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[4,3-c]pyridine-4-ones, which are masked forms related to the acylpyridone natural products.

The pH-induced switching process of 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyridine and 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)pyridine derivatives was investigated with the help of UV spectroscopy. Quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory were performed to show that in the case of 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-methylpyridine and 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methylpyridine the rotation during the switching process proceeds ...

The title compound, C(22)H(18)ClN(3)S, was synthesized by the reaction of 4-chloro-benzaldehyde, tetra-hydro-thio-pyran-4-one and 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-amine in acetic acid without a catalyst. The pyridine and pyrazole rings are almost coplanar, the dihedral angle between their mean planes being 2.50 (1)°. The thio-pyran ring exhibits an envelope conformation. The crystal packing is st...

In the title compound, (C(3)H(12)N(2))[Cu(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(2)]·4H(2)O, the Cu(II) atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry by two tridentate pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate (pydc) ligands. In the crystal, inter-molecular O-H⋯O, N-H⋯O and weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as well as π-π stacking inter-actions between the pyridine rings of the pydc ligands [centroid-centroid distance = 3.47...

3-Hydroxypyridinium and 3-(hydroxymethyl)pyridinium O-terpenyl aryldithiophosphonates were obtained by the reactions of 3-hydroxypyridine 3-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine with aryldithiophosphonic acids on basis (1R,2S,5R)-(−)-menthol, (1S)-endo-(–)-borneol, racemic isoborneol, carvacrol. The salts possess high antimicrobial activity against Bacillus cereus Candida albicans.

The piperidine ring of the title compound, C(16)H(15)N(5), adopts a chair conformation. The pyridine ring is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.035 (3) Å. The pyrrole and pyridine rings are almost coplanar, forming a dihedral angle of 3.48 (14)°. In the crystal, no classical hydrogen bonds were found. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by aromatic π-π stacking [centroid-cen...

The central pyridine ring of the 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine fragment of the title compound, C(35)H(24)N(4)O(2), forms dihedral angles of 8.3 (2), 10.6 (3) and 39.4 (3)°, respectively, with the two outer pyridine rings and the attached benzene ring. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules into chains in [010].

In the title compound, [Co(CH(3)COO)(2)(C(6)H(8)N(2))(2)], the Co(II) ion is five-coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from two 2-amino-3-methyl-pyridine ligands, two O atoms from one acetate ion and one O atom from another acetate ion in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The pyridine rings are nearly perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle = 84.49 (16)°]. The crystal packing is sta...

In the title complex, [Mn(CH(3)CO(2))(2)(C(11)H(9)N(5))], the Mn(II) atom is coordinated by the pyridine N atom and two pyrazole N atoms from a 2,6-bis-(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine ligand and four O atoms from two bidentate acetate ligands. The complex mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a chain along [010]. π-π inter-actions between the pyridine rings and between the p...

The most widely distributed substituted pyridine compounds in living systems are the pyridine nucleotides. The nicotinamide moiety (Fig. 1, I) of these compounds arises from the indole nucleus of tryptophan in animals, (1, 2) and Neurospora (3, 4), but not in higher plants (5-7) and certain bacteria (8). Pyridine compounds which might be used to study the biosynthesis of the pyridine nucleus ar...
