3-Propionylpyridine

Description:

3-Propionylpyridine is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring substituted with a propionyl group at the 3-position. It has a molecular formula of C10H11NO, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. This compound typically appears as a yellow to brown liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the pyridine ring. 3-Propionylpyridine is known for its applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. The compound exhibits moderate toxicity, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the carbonyl group, making it a useful intermediate in various chemical reactions, including acylation and condensation reactions.

3-Propionylpyridine is a metabolite of valine and isovaleric acid. It has been shown to be the major component in horse breath. 3-Propionylpyridine can be used as a marker for identification of horses, and can be used to distinguish between different breeds and sexes. 3-Propionylpyridine is also an intermediate in the synthesis of many drugs, including antibiotics, such as penicillin. The enzyme that catalyzes the formation of 3-Propionylpyridine from valine is tryptophanase, which plays an important role in amino acid metabolism. The active site on tryptophanase contains three hydrogen bonds that form with the substrate. This molecule also has two hydrogens that are transferred during catalysis, which takes place at a specific site called the active site.
