“…27,28 The synthesis of 3-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)pyridines 3 from the 3-(5-tetrazolyl)pyridines 2 was also described in one of these papers. 27 Herein, we wish to report the synthesis of 2,3,4-tri-and 2,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyridines bearing 1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl (4), imidazol-2-yl (5), and thiazol-2-yl (6) moieties at position 3 as well as methyl group at position 2. It should be noted that the 2,3-di-and 2,4,5-trisubstituted nicotinonitriles 1 had to be used as starting compounds common for the entire combinatorial library.…”
