Reaction of tryptamine 1 with dimethyl -3-methoxyallylidenemalonate 2 afforded N?-[4,4-bis (methoxycarbonyl)-1,3-butadienyl] tryptamine 3 which in combination with acetylchloride and pyridine in dichloromethane gave N?, N?-[acetyl]-[(4,4-dinethoxycarbonyl) 1,3butadienyl] tryptamine 4. Treatment of 3 with sodium hydroxide afforded 2H[N-(3-indolyl) ethyl] 2-oxo-3-methoxycarbonyl-1-pyridine 5. Cy...

Treatment of 4-heptafluoroisopropyl-2-methoxy-3,5,6-trifluropyridine (4 ) with aqueous ammonia in THF gave 2-amino-3,5-difluoro-4-heptafluoroisopropyl- 6-methoxy pyridine (5) in 7 1% yield. Chlorination of this amine with 'ButOCl at -16°C gave an unstable product, namely 2-dichloroarnino-3,5- difluoro-4-heptafluoroisopropyl-6-methoxy pyridine (6). Iodine-catalysed rearrangement of this dic...

In the title complex, [Fe(C(11)H(10)N(5)O(4))(CH(3)O)(C(5)H(5)N)]·CH(4)O, the Fe(III) ion has a distorted penta-gonal-bipyramidal geometry. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into one-dimensional chains along [1] via inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

nicotine-based ionic liquid has been used as a green catalyst for pyridine-catalyzed huisgen reaction. it promoted addition of dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate to aldehydes or n-tosyl imines leading to efficient synthesis of 2-benzoylfumarates and 1-azadienes respectively under pyridine free odorless ionic liquid conditions. the improved results were obtained in terms of enhanced yields, with min...

1. Inhibition by pyridine of reduction of NAD by ethanol in the presence of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase was studied at 25 degrees in 60mm-glycine buffer (K(+), pH9.3). 2. The apparent Michaelis constant for ethanol increases linearly and that for NAD increases non-linearly with pyridine concentration. 3. Rates, v, observed in the presence of pyridine are lower than the values calculated from th...
