5,6-Dimethyl-2-pyridinecarbonitrile

Description:
5,6-Dimethyl-2-pyridinecarbonitrile, with the CAS number 59146-67-7, is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 5 and 6 positions and a cyano group at the 2 position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its aromatic properties, which contribute to its stability and reactivity. The presence of the cyano group imparts significant polarity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the methyl substitutions can influence its solubility and boiling point, often enhancing its lipophilicity. 5,6-Dimethyl-2-pyridinecarbonitrile may also exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. As with many organic compounds, proper handling and safety precautions are essential due to potential toxicity and reactivity.
