Abstract

Among all nitrogen-containingheterocycles, the1,8-naphthyridine scaffold has recently gained an immense amount of curiosity from numerous researchers across fields of medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. This new attention can be ascribed to its versatilityof synthesis, its reactivenessand the variety ofbiologicalactivities it has exhibited. Over the past half-decade, numerous diverse biological evaluationshave beenconducted on 1,8-naphthyridine and its derivatives in a quest to unravel novel pharmacological facets to this scaffold. Its potency to treat neurodegenerative and immunomodulatory disorders, along with its anti-HIV, antidepressant and antioxidant properties, has enticed researchers to look beyond its broad-spectrum activities, providing further scope for exploration. This review is a consolidated update of previous works on 1,8-naphthyridines and their analogs, focusing on the past5 years.
