6-Chloropyridine-3-methanol

Description:

6-Chloropyridine-3-methanol is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a chlorine atom at the 6-position and a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) at the 3-position distinguishes this compound. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. This compound is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the hydroxymethyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. 6-Chloropyridine-3-methanol is of interest in various chemical syntheses and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the chlorine atom, which can affect nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many chlorinated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
