methylamino)-3,5,10,12,12a-pentahydroxy-6-methyl-1,11-dioxo-1,4,4a,5,5a,6,11,12a-octahydrotetracene-2-carboxamide hydrochloride hemiethanol hemihydrate (Fig. 1), is one of the tetracycline derivatives, which has a wide range of antibacterial activities. DOX is frequently used to treat chronic prostatitis, sinusitis, syphilis, chlamydia, pelvic inflammatory disease, acne, rosacea, and rickettsia...

In the title dinuclear compound, [Zn(2)(C(6)H(6)N(3)O)(2)(C(6)H(7)N(3)O)(2)](NO(3))(2), the Zn(II) cation is N,N'-chelated by one pyridine-2-carboxamide oximate anion and one pyridine-2-carboxamide oxime mol-ecule, and is further bridged by an oxime O atom from the adjacent pyridine-2-carboxamide oximate anion, forming a distorted trigonal bipyramidal coordination. Two pyridine-2-carboxamide ox...

In the title compound, [Ru(C(13)H(7)Cl(2)N(5))(C(15)H(11)N(3))](PF(6))(2)·2CH(3)CN, the Ru(II) atom is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry by a tridentate 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine ligand and a tridentate 2,6-bis-(5-chloro-pyrimidin-2-yl)pyridine ligand. Least-squares mean-plane distortions of only 1.72 (2) and 2.91 (2)° of the pyrimidyl rings with respect to the central pyridine are ...

The orientation and extent of adsorption of pyridine on a gold electrode is known to depend on applied potential and is well characterized. By use of the electrochemical surface forces apparatus, we measured the potential dependence of the double-layer interactions and adhesive forces between a gold electrode and a mica surface for different pyridine concentrations. We observed that, unlike mic...

The catalytic C-H addition of pyridines to allenes has been achieved for the first time by using a half-sandwich scandium catalyst, thus constituting a straightforward and atom-economical route for the synthesis of alkenylated pyridine derivatives. The reaction proceeded regio- and stereoselectively, affording a new family of alkenylated pyridine compounds which are otherwise difficult to synth...

A series of 1,3-benzoxazole-4-carbonitriles was synthesized and evaluated for its antifungal activity, solubility, and metabolic stability. Among those compounds, 4-cyano-N,N,5-trimethyl-7-[(3S)-3-methyl-3-(methylamino)pyrrolidin-1-yl]-6-phenyl-1,3-benzoxazole-2-carboxamide (16b) exhibited potent in vitro activity against Candida species, higher water solubility, and improved metabolic stabilit...

We have synthesised a novel copper(ii) complex with a pyridine pendant as a proton relay port for electrocatalytic 4e(-) reduction of O2 in water. The enhancement of the electrocatalytic O2 reduction via protonation of the pyridine pendant is demonstrated in comparison with a copper(ii) complex without the pyridine pendant.

In the title compound, C(30)H(20)N(2), the anthracene ring system is approximately planar [maximum deviation = 0.035 (2) Å] and is nearly perpendicular to the central pyridine ring, making a dihedral angle of 75.73 (7)°. The terminal pyridine ring and the phenyl ring are oriented at dihedral angles of 8.11 (10) and 13.22 (10)°, respectively, to the central pyridine ring.

Direct arylation reactions of pyridine N-oxides occur in excellent yield with complete selectivity for the 2-position with a wide range of aryl bromides. This reactivity permits the use of inexpensive, commercially available, and bench-stable pyridine N-oxides as replacements for problematic 2-metallapyridines in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound [Mn(NCS)(2)(C(9)H(13)N)(4)] consists of one Mn(II) cation located on a center of inversion, one thio-cyanato anion, one 3-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand and one 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand in general positions. The tert-butyl group of the 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.60:0.40 ratio. The Mn(II) cation is coordinate...
