5-[(Methylamino)methyl]-3-pyridinecarbonitrile

Description:

5-[(Methylamino)methyl]-3-pyridinecarbonitrile, identified by its CAS number 1060802-63-2, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. This compound features a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to the carbon adjacent to the nitrogen in the pyridine, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in various chemical reactions. The presence of a methylamino group (-NH(CH3)2) indicates that it has basic properties, which can influence its solubility and interaction with other substances. Typically, compounds like this may exhibit moderate to high polarity due to the functional groups present, affecting their behavior in solvents and biological systems. Additionally, the compound may have potential applications in pharmaceuticals or as an intermediate in organic synthesis, given the importance of pyridine derivatives in medicinal chemistry. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many nitrogen-containing organic compounds, due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
