2-Allyloxy/propargyloxypyridines: synthesis, structure, and biological activity

The alkylation (allylation and propargylation) of 3-cyano-6-dialkylamino-2-pyridones containing a d-annulated ring occurs at the oxygen atom. The structures of the starting compounds and their alkylation products were determined by X-ray diffraction. The neurotropic and antimicrobial activity of alkylation products was examined.
