2-methyl-5-nitropyridine-3-carboxylic acid

Description:
2-Methyl-5-nitropyridine-3-carboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the 3-position contributes to its acidity and reactivity, while the methyl group (-CH3) at the 2-position and the nitro group (-NO2) at the 5-position introduce additional functional characteristics that can influence its chemical behavior and interactions. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the carboxylic acid group. Its nitro group can participate in electrophilic substitution reactions, while the carboxylic acid can engage in acid-base reactions. The compound may also serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its functional groups that allow for further chemical modifications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as nitro compounds can be sensitive and potentially hazardous.
