CAS 4737-19-3

Pyridine, 2-isocyanato-

Description:

Pyridine, 2-isocyanato- (CAS 4737-19-3) is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a pyridine ring and an isocyanate functional group. The pyridine ring contributes to its aromatic properties, while the isocyanate group (-N=C=O) is known for its reactivity, particularly in forming ureas and other derivatives through nucleophilic addition reactions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and can react with water, releasing carbon dioxide and forming amines. Due to the presence of the isocyanate group, it is considered to be toxic and potentially hazardous, necessitating careful handling and storage. Pyridine, 2-isocyanato- is utilized in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Its reactivity and structural features make it a valuable intermediate in organic chemistry.

2-Isocyanatopyridine

CAS: 4737-19-3

2-Isocyanatopyridine is a synthetic chemical that has been shown to be an effective anti-cancer agent. It is a hemibasic, heterocyclic compound with two isomers, cis and trans. The cis form exhibits more potent antitumor activity than the trans form. 2-Isocyanatopyridine has been synthesized using mesoporous silica, which provides the molecule with a high surface area and good adsorption properties. Hydrogen bonding between the isocyanate group and hydrogen atoms in the naphthyridine ring are responsible for its functionalizing effects. 2-Isocyanatopyridine binds to receptors on cancer cells and inhibits cell proliferation by interfering with cell signaling pathways.
2-Isocyanatopyridine has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in mice bearing human colon carcinoma xenografts.
