3-Hydroxy-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid methyl ester

Description:
3-Hydroxy-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid methyl ester, also known as methyl 3-hydroxy-2-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 hydroxyl group (-OH) and a carboxylate ester functional group (-COOCH3) attached to the pyridine ring, contributing to its chemical reactivity and potential applications. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents, while the ester group can participate in various chemical reactions, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. This compound may be utilized in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and specific reactivity, can vary based on the conditions and purity of the sample. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
