“…Among the various classes of azoles, the imidazole moiety with two nitrogen atoms is extremely common in nature and forms the core of many biomolecules (Chopra & Sahu, 2019) and synthetic drugs (Pozharskii et al, 2011). Furthermore, pyridine and its derivatives are present in many important compounds, including pharmaceuticals, vitamins (Al-Ghorbani et al, 2016) and drugs, acting as antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidants, antidiabetic, anti-malarial, anti-inflammatory or antiamoebic agents, as well as psychopharmacological antagonists (Altaf et al, 2015). Hence, the combination of pyridine and imidazole derivatives has been proven to result in highly active agents in ISSN 2056-9890 diverse biological fields that include anticancer (Kamal et al, 2014;Mantu et al, 2016), anti-HIV (Bode et al, 2011), antibacterial (Rival et al, 1992) and anti-inflammatory (Rupert et al, 2003) properties.…”
