The crystal structure of 2,6-diphenylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid, C18H13NO2 was studied. Dihedral angles between the plane of pyridine and those of the phenyl substituents were found to be 8.7 and 9.8 (1)°. The shortest int

Heteroaromatization of ethyl 2-cyano-4-oxo-2-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)-4- arylbutanoates 3a,b with ammonium acetate gave ethyl 2,6-diarylisonicotinates 4a,b. Treatment of the latter with acetonitrile afforded novel β-oxoalkanonitriles 6a,b. Reactions of 6a,b wi

Results from a medicinal chemistry approach aimed at replacing the quinoline ring system in the potent and selective human neurokinin-3 (hNK-3) receptor antagonists 1-4 of general formula I are discussed. The data give further insight upon the potential NK-3 pharmacophore. In particular, it is highlighted that both the benzene-condensed ring and the quinoline nitrogen are crucial determinants for optimal binding affinity to the hNK-3 receptor. Some novel compounds maintained part of the binding affinity to the receptor (5, 6, 10 and 13) and compound 5, featuring the naphthalene ring system, appears to be suitable for further modifications: it offers the option to introduce electron-withdrawing groups at position 2 and 4, conferring on the ring an overall electron-deficiency similar to that of the quinoline.
