Two kinds of 3-hydroxypyridine-2(1H)-thiones were synthesized. The visible (VIS) spectroscopic analysis indicated that 3-hydroxy-1-methylpyridine-2(1H)-thione (4a) and 3-hydroxy-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine-2(1H)-thione (4b) formed stable 3:1 Fe(III) complexes. The stability constant of the 4b-Fe(III) complex was estimated from the competitive reaction with EDTA and was found to be 36.7 in logbeta3. Treatment of compound 4b with Ga(acac)3 in D2O:CD3OD (9:1) solution afforded 3:1 Ga(Ill) complex, which was assigned by means of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy. Treatment of compound 4b with Pb(NO3)2 gave 4b-Pb(II) complex. The Pb(II) selectivity over biologically relevant Mg(ll) and Ca(ll) was remarkably improved by adopting N-hydroxyethyl functionality instead of N-methyl group.

The study was conducted on three groups of rats: Group I included Wistar rats with normal blood pressure (first control group); group II - rats with genetically determined hypertension (second control group); group Ill - rats with genetically determined hypertension under the influence ofmagnetic-laser power (study group). For the low-intensively magnetic-laser influence (MLI) we have used device MIT-MT, Ukraine, which was designed for the treatment of low-frequency magnetic field using optical flow blue and red ranges of spectrum. The MLI duration was 15 minutes for the blue range, and 25 minutes for the red one. Biochemical studies included the determination of the activity of isoenzymes of NO-synthase: constitutive (cNOS) and inducible (iNOS), the content of free hemoglobin, stable metabolites of NO, namely nitrite - (NO2(-)) and nitrate - (NO3(-)) anions, resistance to acid hemolysis of red blood cells. The contractile activity of smooth muscles of the aorta was measured. We found that magnetic-laser exposure of rats with genetically determined hypertension in the red (630 nm) and blue (470 nm wavelength) optical range even after a single session leads to an increased synthesis of nitric oxide in the blood plasma. Our data sindicate that the most effective in the intensification of endogenous nitric oxide (increase of NO2(-) and reduction of NO3(-)) and endothelium-dependent responses of aorta in rats with genetically determined hypertension was a ten-day course of the magnetic-laser exposure in the optical flow of the blue spectral range. Also, after 10 sessions of magnetic-laser exposure in rats from the above specified spectrum a stabilization of erythrocyte membranes was observed.
