2-Fluoro-4-pyridinemethanol

Description:
2-Fluoro-4-pyridinemethanol is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a fluorine atom at the 2-position and a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) at the 4-position contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in polar solvents due to the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The fluorine substituent can influence the compound's reactivity and polarity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, particularly in medicinal chemistry and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of the pyridine moiety may impart basicity and potential interactions with biological targets. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
