report the synthesis and biological evaluation of new 3,5-bis(2-indolyl)pyridine and 3-[(2-indolyl)-5-phenyl]pyridine designed as potential CDK inhibitors. Indole, 5-hydroxyindole, and phenol derivatives were used to generate three substitutions of the pyridine. The resulting skeletons were successively exploited to introduce various dimethylaminoalkyl side chains by Williamson type reactions. The synthesis
