Arecoline, arecaidine, and a series of derivatives, differing by the presence or absence of methyl groups at positions on the periphery of the molecule, were prepared, and their binding to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors was tested. On the basis of this study, muscarinic agonism for arecoline series is governed by strict structure-activity relationships, as previously observed for other agonist series. Only minor changes in nitrogen substitution were tolerated in the present series of arecoline derivatives.

In the first systematic study of thiopyranopyridines in which the sulphur atom is separated from the pyridine ring by one carbon atom, the four isomeric enol esters, ethyl 5-hydroxy-8H-thiopyranopyridine-6-carboxylate (4b), ethyl 8-hydroxy-5H-thiopyranopyridine-7-carboxylate (5b), and ethyl 4-hydroxy-1H-thiopyrano- and pyridine-3-carboxylate (6b) and (7b), have been synthesised.Improved methods for the preparation of their pyridine precursors are described.With phenylhydrazine, the enol esters (4b) - (7b) give condensed pyrazole derivatives (15) - (18), which have dipolar structures; with hot mineral acid they undergo decarboxylative hydrolysis, to give the corresponding oxothiopyranopyridines (4a) - (7a).
