5-Methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)pyridine

Description:
5-Methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)pyridine, with the CAS number 85237-71-4, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of pyridines, which are characterized by a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom. This particular compound features a methyl group at the 5-position and a para-substituted methylphenyl group at the 2-position of the pyridine ring. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of both the methyl and phenyl groups contributes to its hydrophobic nature, influencing its solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. The compound may exhibit interesting chemical reactivity due to the electron-donating effects of the methyl groups, which can affect its behavior in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitutions. Additionally, it may have applications in organic synthesis and materials science, although specific uses can vary based on its properties and reactivity. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
