Methyl 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxylate

Description:
Methyl 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxylate, with the CAS number 13602-11-4, is an organic compound belonging to the class of pyridine derivatives. It features a pyridine ring substituted with a methyl group at the 6-position and a carboxylate group at the 2-position, with a methyl ester functional group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Methyl 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxylate is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the carboxylate group, allowing for various chemical transformations, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
