Ethyl 4,6-Dichloronicotinate acts as a reactant in the preparation of (acylamino)aminonaphthyridinones as novobiocin analogs and Hsp90 inhibitors, their antitumor activities in human breast cancer cell lines, and the effects on aptoptosis and cell cycle advancement of selected compounds.
Ethyl 4,6-dichloronicotinate is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic Synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyestuffs. It is also used as a fine chemical intermediate. Ethyl-4,6-dichloronicotinate could be used as a starting material to synthesize 6-chlorothieno[3,2-c]pyridine-2-carbohydrazide-hydrazone subsidiaries[1].
