Description:5-Nitronicotinic acid, with the CAS number 2047-49-6, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of nitro-substituted pyridine carboxylic acids. It features a pyridine ring with a nitro group (-NO2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to the fifth and first positions, respectively. This compound is typically characterized by its crystalline solid form, which is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols. The presence of both the nitro and carboxylic acid functional groups contributes to its acidic properties and potential reactivity. 5-Nitronicotinic acid may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research, particularly in the development of compounds with antimicrobial or anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, its structural features allow for various chemical modifications, which can lead to the synthesis of derivatives with enhanced or altered biological activities. As with many nitro compounds, care should be taken regarding its handling and storage due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
