Abstract | ||
The synthesis of a number of chalcones derived from acetylpyridines and some p-substituted benzaldehydes has been accomplished. These compounds were evaluated for their alkylating activity by kinetic studies of their reaction with 2-mercaptoethanol. Compounds with electron withdrawing groups in the p-position of benzylidine moiety showed higher activities than compounds with electron donating groups. Quaternization of the pyridine ring decreased activity profoundly. | ||
