Profiles of Drug Substances, Excipients and Related Methodology
Functionalized pyridinone- and pyridinethione-scaffolds, nicotinic-, isonicotinic-, aminobenzoic- and hydrazinobenzoic acids were prepared and examined as bioisosters, but no significant improvement of affinity was encountered by this maneuver
