Several new pyridine derivatives were prepared via reacting the enaminoketones 1a-d with active hydrogen reagents. Reaction of the enaminoketones 1a-c with 4-acetyl-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-one 2a yielded the pyridines 3a-c. Condensation of the enaminonitrile 1d with 2b-d or 3-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3- dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile 8 give the pyridine derivatives 6a-c and 10 respectivly. Also, (E)-3- (3-(dimethylamino)acryloyl)-2H-chromen-2-one 1a reacted with active methylenes in diethyl 3-oxopentanedioate 12 and 4-methyl-6-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile 15 to afford the pyridine derivatives 14 and 16 respectively.

The electrical and dielectric properties of the synthesized 2-(antipyrin-4-ylhydrazono)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetonitrile (AHNA) have been studied. The direct and alternating current (DC and AC) conductivities and complex dielectric constant were investigated in temperature range 303–403 K. The AC conductivity and dielectric properties of AHNA were investigated over frequency range 100 Hz–5 MHz. From DC and AC measurements, electrical conduction is found to be a thermally activated process. The frequency-dependent AC conductivity obeys Jonscher's universal power law in which the frequency exponent decreases with increasing temperature. The correlated barrier hopping (CBH) is the predominant model for describing the charge carrier transport in which the electrical parameters are evaluated. The activation energy is found to decrease with increasing frequency. The behaviors of dielectric and dielectric loss are discussed in terms of a polarization mechanism. The dielectric loss shows frequency power law from which the maximum barrier height is determined as 0.19 eV in terms of the Guintini model.

The 5-(2-phenylhydrazono)-3,3-dimethylcyclohexanone (PHDMC) is synthesized by reacting 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione with 2-phenylhydrazine. Synthesized PHDMC is polycrystalline with monoclinic space group, P2₁/a. Miller’s indices values for each diffraction peak in the X-ray diffraction spectrum are calculated. Thin films of PHDMC with different thickness values (0.83–1.247μm) are prepared by thermal evaporation technique and they exhibit amorphous structure. Different vibrational modes, observed in infrared spectra of the powder and thin films, were assigned to the molecular bonding structure of PHDMC compound. The optical properties of PHDMC thin films are investigated by measuring the optical transmittance and reflectance at the normal incidence of the light in the spectral range 200–2500nm. The refractive and absorption indices of the films are found to be independent of the film thickness …
