ChEBI: Pydanon is an organonitrogen heterocyclic compound and an organic heteromonocyclic compound. | [Production Methods]
Commercial production of pydanon is not described in open literature but can be inferred from its well defined pyridazinone structure. The compound is a reduced, hydroxylated pyridazinone bearing an acetic acid side chain, so industrial synthesis would follow the standard sequence used for pyridazinone herbicides: construction of the pyridazinone ring from a suitably substituted dicarbonyl precursor and hydrazine, followed by controlled reduction and hydroxylation to generate the hexahydropyridazinone core. Introduction of the acetic acid substituent occurs through nucleophilic substitution or condensation at the 4 position, after which the product is purified to remove unreacted hydrazine derivatives and ring modified by products | [Mechanism of action]
