7-Aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)-5-oxo-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-6,8-dicarbonitriles: Synthesis and Predicted Biological Activity

Abstract

Aminomethylation of 1,6-diamino-4-aryl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles under the action of excess of formaldehyde in ethanol has led to the formation of 7-aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)-5-oxo-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-6,8-dicarbonitriles. Bioavailability parameters of the obtained compounds have been predicted in silico and the possible protein targets have been predicted via the protein-ligand docking.
