4-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 3-methoxy-, methyl ester

Description:
4-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 3-methoxy-, methyl ester, also known as methyl 3-methoxy-4-pyridinecarboxylate, 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 methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl ester functional group (-COOCH3) attached to the pyridine ring, contributing to its chemical reactivity and solubility properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its lipophilicity, making it soluble in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. This compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Its synthesis often involves the methylation of pyridinecarboxylic acids or related derivatives. As with many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, following appropriate safety protocols to avoid exposure or environmental contamination.
