Hydroxypyr(id)ones are a pharmaceutically important class of compounds that have shown potential in diverse areas of drug discovery. We investigated the 3-hydroxy-4-pyridones 1a–1c and 3-hydroxy-4-thiopyridones 1d–1f as well as their Ru(&...
Five undescribed pentaketide derivatives, (R)-6,8-dihydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-3-methylidene-3,4-dihydro-1H-2-benzopyran-1-one (1), [(3S,4R)-3,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-4,5-dimethyl-1-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-3-yl]methyl acetate (2), (R)-5, 7-dimethoxy-3-...
This work describes the synthesis of 3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydropyrido[2,1-c][1,4]oxazine-1,8-diones, their tautomerism, and reactivity towards binucleophiles. These molecules are novel and convenient building-blocks for the direct construction of biologic...
Two new 4-hydroxy-2-pyridone alkaloids furanpydone A and B (1 and 2), along with two known compounds N-hydroxyapiosporamide (3) and apiosporamide (4) were isolated from the endophytic fungus Arthrinium sp. GZWMJZ-606 in Houttuynia cordata Thunb. Fura...
Dehydroacetic acid and triacetic acid lactone are known to be versatile substrates for the synthesis of a variety of azaheterocycles. However, their fluorinated analogs were poorly described in the literature. In the present work, we have investigate...
A two-stage synthesis of 5-aroyl-2-aryl-3-hydroxypyridin-4(1H)-ones (56–66% overall yields) was carried out by refluxing 5-aroyl-3-(benzyloxy)-2-(het)aryl-4H-pyran-4-ones with ammonium acetate in AcOH and subsequent debenzylation. The prepared...
Reaction of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone (1a) as well as 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridones (1b-d) with arylmethylene malononitriles or arylmethylene methyl cyanoacetates (2a-h) leads to the formation of the very stable 5,6-fused bicyclic 2-amino-4Hpy...
The intermediate 3 and the product 4 were prepared according to a reported procedure [1].[...]
Reaction between the derivatives of 6-methyl-beta-nitropyridin-2-one and phenacyl bromides was studied, and the yields observed were extremely low. The pyridones were converted via chloropyridines to methoxyderivatives, which were N-phenacylated. N-P...
Eight new 4-hydroxy-2-pyridone alkaloids arthpyrones D–K (1–8), along with two known analogues apiosporamide (9) and arthpyrone B (10), were isolated from a deep-sea-derived fungus Arthrinium sp. UJNMF0008. The structures of the isolated...
Pirfenidone (5-methyl-1-phenyl-2(1H)-pyridone, PFD) is a small-molecule compound acting on multiple targets involved in pathological fibrogenesis and is effective to increase the survival of patients with fibrosis, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibros...
The reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin (1) with some primary amines 2a-h and morpholine (2i) under microwave irradiation occurred without opening of the lactone ring to give N-substituted 4-aminocoumarins 3a-i in excellent yields. Under the same experimen...
An implicit account of the solvent effect can be carried out using traditional static quantum chemistry calculations by applying an external electric field to the studied molecular system. This approach allows one to distinguish between the effects o...
Commercial dehydroacetic acid was converted into 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one (3), which was then condensed with several aliphatic aldehydes to produce seven new title compounds in variable yields (35–92%). Reaction of 3 with α,β-unsaturated a...
Novel yellow azo pyridone dye derivatives were synthesized for use in image-sensor color filters. The synthesized compounds have a basic chemical structure composed of azo, hydroxy, amide, and nitrile groups as well as different halide groups. New ma...
Two new yellow azo pyridone derivatives, (E)-6-hydroxy-1-(3-methoxypropyl)-4-methyl-2-oxo-5-(p-tolyldiazenyl)-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (APY-M) and 5,5′-((1E,1′E)-(methylenebis(4,1-phenylene))bis(diazene-2,1-diyl))bis(6-hydroxy-4...
The Caf1/CNOT7 nuclease is a catalytic component of the Ccr4-Not deadenylase complex, which is a key regulator of post-transcriptional gene regulation. In addition to providing catalytic activity, Caf1/CNOT7 and its paralogue Caf1/CNOT8 also contribu...
