2,4-Pyridinedicarboxylicacid, 4-ethyl ester

Description:
2,4-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid, 4-ethyl ester, also known as ethyl 2,4-pyridinedicarboxylate, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure with two carboxylic acid groups and an ethyl ester functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl group. The presence of the pyridine ring imparts basic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitutions. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its reactivity and functional groups make it a valuable building block in the development of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
