Preparation of pyridine derivatives from the corresponding 5-acetal-1-carbonyl compounds by acid promoted cyclization

The synthesis of four alkylpyridine derivatives from 5-acetal-1-carbonyl compounds via the one-pot, acid-promoted cyclization of oxime intermediates is described. In addition, a dihydroxypyridine and pyridinium salt were also synthesized. The pyridine formation step was not affected by the stereochemistry of the precursors used.

Drug for ameliorating brain diseases

The present invention discloses a drug for ameliorating brain diseases which comprises as an active ingredient a compound represented by the following formula (1): STR1 or a salt thereof. Because of inhibiting a decrease in brain neurons and promoting branching of neurites, this drug is efficacious in the prevention and treatment of dementia, etc. in association with degeneration and sloughing of brain neurons.
