Description:
4,6-Dimethyl-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, with the CAS number 5439-01-0, is an organic compound belonging to the class of pyridine derivatives. It features a pyridine ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 4 and 6 positions and an aldehyde functional group at the 2 position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the aldehyde group makes it reactive, particularly in condensation reactions and as a potential electrophile in various organic syntheses. Additionally, 4,6-Dimethyl-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its chemical properties, including boiling point and reactivity, can vary based on environmental conditions and the presence of other functional groups in a reaction mixture. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound due to its potential irritant properties.
