General description

Quinaldic acid is also referred as quinoline-2-carboxylic acid. Microwave-assisted preparation of substituted anilides of quinaldic acid has been reported. It inhibits the oxidation of pyruvate, α-ketoglutarate, glutamate and citrate in rat liver mitochondria. Quinaldic acid is a metabolite of tryptophan degradation and inhibits the gluconeogenesis in perfused livers.

In this study a one step method for the preparation of substituted anilides of quinoline-2-carboxylic acid was developed. This efficient innovative approach is based on the direct reaction of an acid or ester with substituted anilines using microwave irradiation. The

Certain products of tryptophan metabolism interact with excitatory amino acid receptors to produce or protect against excitotoxicity. In this study, the action of several tryptophan metabolites, yielded by the kynurenine pathway, on cortical cholinergic toxicity was evaluated following focal injection

Specifically 13C-labeled quinoline-2-carboxylate derivatives were synthesized from quinoline and used to study the biosynthesis of thiostrepton in a strain of Streptomyces laurentii. 13C NMR analysis of thiostrepton recovered after feeding methyl (RS)-[11-13C]-4-(1-hydroxyethyl)quinoline-2-carboxylate or methyl [11-13C]-4-acetylquinoline-2-carboxylate showed conclusively that these compounds

Serratia marcecens 2CC-1 utilizes quinaldic acid (quinoline 2-carboxylic acid) as sole source of carbon, nitrogen and energy. Growth of strain 2CC-1 on quinaldic acid as well as on nicotinic acid and hypoxanthine was inhibited completely by the molybdate antagonist tungstate
