2-Chloro-4,6-dimethylpyridine

Description:
2-Chloro-4,6-dimethylpyridine is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with chlorine and two methyl groups. Its molecular formula is C8H10ClN, indicating the presence of a chlorine atom and a nitrogen atom within the six-membered aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the chlorine atom contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. The methyl groups enhance its lipophilicity, influencing its biological activity and interaction with other chemical species. 2-Chloro-4,6-dimethylpyridine is also known for its potential applications in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules, serving as a building block in organic chemistry. As with many chlorinated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
