:4(1H)-Pyridinone, 2-methyl-
Description:
4(1H)-Pyridinone, 2-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring with a ketone functional group and a methyl substituent. Its molecular structure features a six-membered aromatic ring containing nitrogen, which contributes to its basicity and potential reactivity. The presence of the carbonyl group (C=O) at the 4-position enhances its ability to participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic additions and condensation reactions. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the nitrogen atom and the carbonyl group. Its chemical properties can be influenced by the methyl group, which can affect steric hindrance and electronic distribution within the molecule. 4(1H)-Pyridinone derivatives are of interest in medicinal chemistry for their potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. As with many nitrogen-containing heterocycles, this compound may also serve as a building block for the synthesis of more complex organic molecules.
