5-(Hydroxymethyl)-3-pyridinecarbonitrile

Description:
5-(Hydroxymethyl)-3-pyridinecarbonitrile, with the CAS number 135124-71-9, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. This compound features a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) and a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to the pyridine ring, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in various chemical processes. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents, while the cyano group can participate in nucleophilic reactions, making it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis. The compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions. Its unique functional groups suggest potential uses in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as compounds containing cyano groups can be toxic and require appropriate precautions.
