Pyridine, 2,6-dimethyl-4-nitro-

Description:
2,6-Dimethyl-4-nitropyridine, with the CAS number 4913-57-9, is a heterocyclic organic compound belonging to the pyridine family. It features a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom and is substituted at the 2 and 6 positions with methyl groups and at the 4 position with a nitro group. This compound is typically a yellow to brown solid at room temperature and is known for its characteristic aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the nitro group contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitutions. Additionally, the methyl groups enhance its lipophilicity, influencing its biological activity and potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as nitro-substituted compounds can be hazardous and may pose environmental risks.
