2-[(4-Nitrophenyl)methyl]pyridine

Description:
2-[(4-Nitrophenyl)methyl]pyridine, with the CAS number 620-87-1, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring substituted with a 4-nitrophenylmethyl group. This compound typically appears as a yellow to orange crystalline solid and is known for its aromatic properties due to the presence of both the pyridine and nitrophenyl moieties. It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, while being less soluble in water. The presence of the nitro group contributes to its electron-withdrawing characteristics, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. This compound is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, its unique structure allows for potential applications in materials science and as a ligand in coordination chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as nitro-substituted compounds can be hazardous.
