Abstract

Benzofuran derivatives are known possess hypotensive(l), vasodilating and spasmolytic activity(2). Moreover, some benzofuran derivatives showed antibacterial activity as well as antiparasitic properties(3,4).On the other hand substituted pyridine showed herbicidal(5) and antibacterial activities(6) compounds having both pyridine and benzofuran moieties can be expected to possess marked biological activities.
