2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 4-(hydroxymethyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:
2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 4-(hydroxymethyl)-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 59663-96-6, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group and an ethyl ester moiety, contributing to its chemical reactivity and solubility properties. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group at the 4-position of the pyridine ring enhances its potential for hydrogen bonding and may influence its biological activity. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate polarity, making them soluble in polar solvents like alcohols and water, while also being capable of forming esters and undergoing various chemical reactions such as esterification and nucleophilic substitutions. The compound may find applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as intermediates in organic synthesis due to its functional groups, which can be modified for specific chemical transformations. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
