3-(4-Chloro-2-pyridinyl)benzenemethanol

Description:

3-(4-Chloro-2-pyridinyl)benzenemethanol, identified by its CAS number 1349718-47-3, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a benzene ring substituted with a benzenemethanol group and a pyridine moiety. The presence of the 4-chloro-2-pyridinyl group introduces both electron-withdrawing and steric effects, influencing the compound's reactivity and solubility. This compound is likely to exhibit moderate polarity due to the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. Additionally, the chlorinated pyridine ring may impart unique electronic properties, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and material science. Its potential applications could include use as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, as well as in research settings for studying structure-activity relationships. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with any chemical substance, particularly those containing halogens and heteroatoms.
