5-Nitro-2-pyridineacetonitrile

Description:
5-Nitro-2-pyridineacetonitrile is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a nitro group (-NO2) at the 5-position of the pyridine ring contributes to its reactivity and polarity, making it a useful intermediate in various chemical syntheses. The acetonitrile group (-C≡N) at the 2-position enhances its utility in organic reactions, particularly in nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in polar organic solvents. Its chemical properties are influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group, which can affect the acidity of nearby hydrogen atoms and the overall electron density of the molecule. 5-Nitro-2-pyridineacetonitrile is often utilized in pharmaceutical research and development, as well as in the synthesis of agrochemicals and other fine chemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as nitro compounds can be hazardous.
