2-Vinylpyridine is a reactive, organic compound that can form hydrogen bonds with other molecules. It has been used in the synthesis of detergent compositions and as a reactant to produce polymers. 2-Vinylpyridine is also used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as hepatitis C. 2-Vinylpyridine has been shown to bind to proteins by forming hydrogen bonds with amino acid residues that have an amine group or a hydroxyl group. The binding of 2-vinyl pyridine to these sites leads to conformational changes and enzyme inhibition. 2-Vinylpyridine can be synthesized from pyridine and hydrochloric acid in a two step process involving condensation followed by cyclization. 2-Vinylpyridine was first synthesized by Kolbe and Woodward in 1883 using x-ray crystallography, which involved exposing crystals of pyridine to x-rays, thereby providing structural
