2-Amino-3-cyano-4,6-disubstituted-pyridines (6) and 3-cyano-4,6-disubstituted-pyridin-2-ones (10) are obtained by reacting the corresponding propenones (1) with malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate, respectively, in the presence of ammonium acetate.The compounds (6) and (10) can be readily obtained by reacting the corresponding ylidene-malononitriles (8) and -cyanoesters (9) with the appropriate ketone.Molluscicidal activity of the compounds is also discussed.
