6-Chloro-3,4'-bipyridine-1-oxides 5 and 5-cyano-1,6-dihydro-2-methyl-6-oxo-3,4'-bipyridine-1'-oxide 7 have been prepared from the corresponding pyridine derivatives by oxidation using peracetic acid. Reaction of 5 with various amines gave the 6-substituted compounds 6. Some of the synthesized products 6 were subsequently converted by derivation into related analogues 8, 9 and 10. In this series 5-cyano-6-morpholino-(3,4'-bipyridine)-1'-oxide (AWD 122-239, 6a), exhibited remarkable positive inotropic potency in spontaneously beating isolated guinea-pig atria as well as in anesthetized pigs. Additionally, 6a showed nearly no inhibition of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase III. The molecular and crystal structures were determined together with the molecular electrostatic potential and structure-activity relationships are discussed. The obtained results clearly indicate compound 6a as a new type of cardiotonic.
