3-methyl-5-nitropyridine

Description:

3-Methyl-5-nitropyridine is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H6N2O2, characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with a methyl group at the 3-position and a nitro group at the 5-position. This compound typically appears as a yellow to brown solid and is known for its aromatic properties, which contribute to its stability and reactivity. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water. The presence of both the methyl and nitro groups influences its chemical behavior, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution. 3-Methyl-5-nitropyridine can be used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Additionally, it exhibits interesting electronic properties due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group, which can affect its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as nitro compounds can be hazardous.
