2-Pyridinecarboxylicacid, 4-chloro-, ethyl ester

Description:
2-Pyridinecarboxylic acid, 4-chloro-, ethyl ester, also known as ethyl 4-chloropyridine-2-carboxylate, is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure substituted with a carboxylic acid and an ethyl ester group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl group and the presence of the aromatic pyridine ring. The compound is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing chlorine atom, which can enhance electrophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use in laboratory or industrial settings.
