Description

2-Chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide (2CMPI) is a water-soluble, colorless, and odorless substance that is used as an analytical reagent. 2CMPI reacts with amines and pyridines to form chloromethylpyridine and hydroxymethylpyridine respectively, which can be analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy. The sensitivity of this reaction is affected by the matrix, but can be increased by adding dibutyltin oxide or amide. 2CMPI has been shown to have physiological activities in some animal models of metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus.
