4-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 2-methyl-, ethyl ester

Description:
4-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 2-methyl-, ethyl ester, also known as ethyl 2-methyl-4-pyridinecarboxylate, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group that has been esterified with an ethyl group, contributing to its ester characteristics. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the methyl group at the 2-position of the pyridine ring influences its reactivity and solubility properties, making it more lipophilic. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or other fine chemicals. Its solubility in organic solvents and moderate stability under standard conditions make it a useful compound in various chemical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
