2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:
2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-, methyl ester, also known as methyl 3-hydroxy-6-methylpyridine-2-carboxylate, 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 that has been esterified with methanol, resulting in a methyl ester. The presence of a hydroxyl group at the 3-position and a methyl group at the 6-position on the pyridine ring contributes to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. This compound is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate solubility in water. Its applications may include use in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the pyridine nitrogen and the functional groups attached to the ring, making it a versatile building block in various chemical reactions.
