Abstract

A series of novel thieno[2,3-b]pyridines linked to N-aryl carboxamides or (carbonylphenoxy)-N-(aryl)acetamides, as well as bis(thieno[2,3-b]pyridines) linked to piperazine core via methanone or carbonylphenoxyethanone units, were synthesized by treating the appropriate chloroacetyl- or bis-bromoacetyl derivatives with 2-mercaptonicotinonitrile derivatives in ethanolic sodium ethoxide at reflux. The spectral data were used to determine the compositions of novel compounds.
