:N-Methyl-N-nitroso-2-pyridinamine
Description:
N-Methyl-N-nitroso-2-pyridinamine, with the CAS number 16219-98-0, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of nitrosamines, which are known for their potential carcinogenic properties. This substance features a pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom, and is substituted with a methyl group and a nitroso group. The presence of the nitroso group (-N=O) is significant, as it contributes to the compound's reactivity and biological activity. N-Methyl-N-nitroso-2-pyridinamine is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Due to its nitrosamine structure, it may pose health risks, including potential mutagenicity and carcinogenicity, which necessitates careful handling and regulation in laboratory and industrial settings. As with many nitrosamines, its use is often restricted or monitored due to these health concerns.
