CAS 18728-61-5
:α-methylpyridine-2-methanol
Description:
α-Methylpyridine-2-methanol, with the CAS number 18728-61-5, is an organic compound that features a pyridine ring substituted with a methyl group and a hydroxymethyl group. This compound is characterized by its aromatic nature due to the presence of the pyridine ring, which contributes to its chemical stability and reactivity. The hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) introduces polar characteristics, making the compound more soluble in polar solvents compared to non-polar ones. α-Methylpyridine-2-methanol can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and oxidation processes, due to the functional groups present. Its structure allows for potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound's physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, are influenced by the interactions between the hydroxymethyl group and the pyridine ring, as well as the overall molecular weight. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
