Description:Pyrimidine-5-carboxaldehyde, with the CAS number 10070-92-5, is an organic compound characterized by its pyrimidine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3. This compound features a carboxaldehyde functional group (-CHO) at the 5-position of the pyrimidine ring, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. Pyrimidine-5-carboxaldehyde is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including condensation and substitution reactions. The presence of the aldehyde group allows for further functionalization, making it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Additionally, its derivatives may exhibit biological activity, which is of interest in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its potential reactivity and the need for safety precautions when working with aldehydes.
