2,5-bis alkyl sulfonyl and 2,5-bis alkyl thio substituted-pyridines

A process for preparing substituted-pyridines having a sulfonyl type substituted at the 3 or 5 position of the pyridine ring and a phenoxy type substituent at the 2 position is described.

bis-Alkylsulfonylpyridines

Dihalogenated pyridines, some activated with carboxylic, ester or cyano group, were allowed to react with sodium alkylmercaptides.After hydrolysis of the ester or cyano group followed by decarboxylation, bis-alkylthiopyridines with substituents at 2,3-, 2,4-, 2,5-, 2,6- and 3,5-positions were prepared.These compounds were oxidized to bis-alkylsulfonylpyridines.

Sulfur-substituted phenoxypyridines having antiviral activity

Sulfur-substituted phenoxypyridines having antiviral activity are disclosed. Methods of using the sulfur-substituted phenoxypyridines to employ their antiviral activity are also disclosed as well as pharmaceutically-acceptable compositions thereof.
