  Author(s): K. Neelaveni* and Y. Rajendra Prasad
  
  Using specified synthesis process, chalcones were converted into a new pyridine moiety containing pyrimidine-2-thiols. By combining 3-acetylpyridine with substituted benzaldehydes, pyridine-bearing chalcones were developed initialy. New pyrimidine-2-thiol derivatives are produced by the reaction of additional pyridine containing chalcones with thiourea. Physical and spectral analysis was used to describe the derivatives of pyridine containing pyrimidine-2-thiol that were generated. When compared to standard ligand drugs, 4-(4-nitrophenyl)-6-(pyridin-3-yl)-pyrimidine- 2-thiol exhibits significant binding interaction at the active site regions of cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2, according to molecular docking studies performed at cyclooxygenase targets using Auto-Dock Vina software...
