Synthesis, Bioassay, and Molecular Field Topology Analysis of Diverse Vasodilatory Heterocycles

A diverse training set composed of 76 in-house synthesized and 61 collected from the literature was subjected to molecular field topology analysis. This resulted in a high-quality quantitative structure–activity relationships model (<i>R</i>² = 0.932, <i>Q</i>² = 0.809) which was used for the topological functional core identification and prediction of vasodilatory activity of 19 novel pyridinecarbonitriles, which turned out to be active in experimental bioassay
