6-chloro-2-methylpyridine-3-carbonitrile

Description:
6-Chloro-2-methylpyridine-3-carbonitrile is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with a chlorine atom, a methyl group, and a cyano group. The presence of the chlorine atom at the 6-position and the cyano group at the 3-position contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in various chemical reactions. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to light brown appearance and is soluble in polar organic solvents. Its molecular structure allows for various interactions, making it useful in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The cyano group is particularly significant as it can participate in nucleophilic addition reactions, while the chlorine atom can serve as a leaving group in substitution reactions. Additionally, the compound's properties, such as boiling point and melting point, are influenced by the functional groups present and the overall molecular weight. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with many chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
