6-chloro-2-methyl-pyridine-3-carbaldehyde

Description:
6-Chloro-2-methyl-pyridine-3-carbaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which features a chlorine atom and a methyl group at specific positions. The presence of the aldehyde functional group (-CHO) at the 3-position contributes to its reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. 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 dichloromethane, but its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the pyridine ring. The chlorine substituent can influence the compound's electronic properties, potentially enhancing its reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, 6-chloro-2-methyl-pyridine-3-carbaldehyde may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
