Abstract
Pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridines (6-azaindoles) are the most promising nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds in the field of drug development. Exhibiting extraordinary versatility as pharmacophores, they are widely used in the development of kinase inhibitors, antiproliferative agents, and as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of various diseases, including cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. A large number of works focusing on new methods and approaches in the synthesis of 6-azaindoes, as well as on the study of their biological activity, have been published worldwide. In our review, we tried to classify all currently known strategies for the construction of the 6-azaindole core, which were published within the last 15 years, the chemical diversity of the derivatives obtained, and their therapeutic potential in the context of medicinal chemistry. We hope that this work will generalize and facilitate the understanding of the strategy for the synthesis of pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridines, as well as help scientists in their further research in the direction of 6-azaindoles.
