Rhodococcus rhodochrous PY11 (DSM 101666) is able to use 2-hydroxypyridine as a sole source of carbon and energy. By investigating a gene cluster (hpo) from this bacterium, we were able to reconstruct the catabolic pathway of 2-hydroxypyridine degradation. Here, we report that in Rhodococcus rhodochrous PY11, the initial hydroxylation of 2-hydroxypyridine is catalyzed by a four-component dioxyg...

Annelation of the coumarin ring was performed via cathodic reduction of 3-nitrocoumarin derivatives (1-4) by controlled potential. The reduction of 3-nitro-4-aminocoumarin, 1, gave 3,4-diaminocoumaDin, 5, and subsequent treatment with formic acid furnished tlie novel 4H [1] benzopyrano [3,4-b] imidazole-4-on ring system 6. The condensation of 5 with trifluoracetic acid anhydride, acetic acid an...

1,1 0-Ferrocene dicarboxylic acid pyridin-4-yl ester (1) is prepared from 1,1 0-ferrocene dicarbonyl chloride and 4-hydroxypyridine. This new bidentate ferrocenoyl ligand reacts with the monocationic complex [(g-p-cymene)2Ru2(l-OH)3] + to give the dicationic complex [(g-p-cymene)2Ru2(l-OH)2(1,1 0(NC5H4–OOC)2–Fc)] 2+ (2) (Fc: C5H4–Fe–C5H4), isolated as a tetrafluoroborate salt. The single-crysta...

The structure of the title compound, [Co(C(5)H(6)NO(4))(3)], consists of a Co(III) ion octahedrally coordinated by three bidentate 3-nitro-pentane-2,4-dionate ligands. The complex was prepared via the nitration of tris-(2,4-penta-nedionato-κ(2)O,O')cobalt(III) with a solution of copper(II) nitrate in glacial acetic acid. The central C atom and the nitro group of one 3-nitro-pentane-2,4-dionate ...

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.

Hydroxysulphapyridine was isolated as a metabolite of sulphapyridine in the dog by Scudi (1940, 1944) and by Weber, Lalich & Major (1943). In an investigation of the metabolism ofsulphapyridine in the rabbit, we obtained a compound which appeared to be identical with the hydroxysulphapyridine produced by the dog (Bray, Neale & Thorpe, 1946). The constitution was not determined, but evidence was...

A series of five-membered heterocyclic rings were synthesized by the reaction between benzoyl chloride and various chlolro-nitro-benzoyl chlorides and semi carbazide to form (C1-C7) compounds and was tested for their anti-inflammatory activity determined by rat-paw-oedema method. All the synthesis compounds have been characterized by 1HNMR, IR and Mass spectral data. The compounds were purified...
