2-Methyl-3-Nitropyridine

Description:

2-Methyl-3-nitropyridine is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H6N2O2. It features a pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom, substituted with a methyl group at the second position and a nitro group at the third position. This compound is typically a yellow to brown solid and is known for its moderate solubility in polar solvents like water and alcohols. The presence of both the methyl and nitro groups influences its chemical reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. 2-Methyl-3-nitropyridine can undergo various reactions, including electrophilic substitution and reduction, due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group. Additionally, it exhibits properties typical of nitro compounds, such as potential toxicity and the need for careful handling. As with many nitrogen-containing heterocycles, it may also display interesting biological activities, warranting further investigation in medicinal chemistry.
