2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 5-(hydroxymethyl)-

Description:
2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 5-(hydroxymethyl)-, also known as 5-hydroxymethyl-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure with a carboxylic acid group and a hydroxymethyl substituent. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water and various organic solvents, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of both the carboxylic acid and hydroxymethyl groups. It exhibits acidic properties, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in chemical processes. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group can also provide sites for further chemical modifications, making it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, this compound may have applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its specific properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and spectral characteristics, can vary and should be referenced from reliable chemical databases or literature for precise information.
