Studies on anticoccidial agents. 1. Synthesis and anticoccidial activity of 4 deoxypyridoxol and its esters

Methods for syntheses of 4 deoxypyridoxine and 2 ethyl 2 demethylpyridoxine from pyridoxine were developed. α5 O Monoacyl 4 deoxypyridosines were, in general, obtained by selective hydrolysis of 3,α5 O diacyl 4 deoxypyridoxines. 4 Deoxypyridoxine and its esters showed anticoccidial activity against Eimeria acervulina.
