Pyridine is a heterocyclic molecule with a nitrogen atom that is often found in nature. As a prosthetic group taking part in redox processes in the biological system, it plays an important function in many enzymes of the living system. Pyridine is an important pharmacophore, a privileged scaffold, and a superior heterocyclic system in drug development, with various applications in anticancer research because of its ability to work on significant receptors. Typically, it is the core of several currently available medicines. In the fight against cancer, many pyridine derivatives have been shown to inhibit kinases, androgen receptors, tubulin polymerization, topoisomerase enzyme, human carbonic anhydrase, and several other targets. Researchers are now concentrating on developing pyridine novel entities with other moieties for cancer therapy. This section presents pyridine derivative synthesis and biological expansions, as well as their target receptor sites.
Kinetic and mechanistic study of cinacalcet hydrochloride by chloramine-B (CAB) in HCl medium at
308 K was the aim of this work. Analyzed the reaction at five different temperatures and determined
the thermodynamic parameters using Arrhenius plots. The reaction had a stoichiometry of 1:2 and
characterized the oxidation product using chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. The rate law
is deduced from the marked effects, which were accompanied by plausible mechanisms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
