:2-(Hydroxymethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid
Description:
2-(Hydroxymethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid, also known as pyridine-3-carboxylic acid with a hydroxymethyl group at the 2-position, 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 carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) and a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH), contributing to its polar nature and potential for hydrogen bonding. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water due to the presence of the carboxylic acid and hydroxymethyl groups. The compound is of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and biochemistry, as it may serve as a building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules or as a ligand in coordination chemistry. Its properties, such as acidity and reactivity, can be influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the pyridine ring, making it a versatile compound in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry.
