Members of a series of 2,2'-bipyridines have been synthesized and tested as inhibitors of prolyl hydroxylase (EC 1.14.11.2). The structure-activity relationships seen with [2,2'-bipyridine]-5-carboxylic acid (4) closely resemble those of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (2). Accordingly, [2,2'-bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid (11, IC50 = 0.19
