Description

Pyridin-4-ylmethanamine is a chemical compound that contains a pyridine ring and an amine (-NH2) group. It is usually used as a building block for the synthesis of other compounds. Pyridin-4-ylmethanamine can be synthesized from picolinic acid, which is obtained through a reaction with sodium hydrochloride in an alkaline solution. This reaction proceeds via two steps: first, the formation of a pyridinecarboxylic acid ester and then the addition of ammonia to form pyridin-4-ylmethanamine. The transfer reactions that occur during this process are highly dependent on temperature and pH. The frequency shift effect can be observed when pyridin-4-ylmethanamine interacts with amines, which changes its absorption spectrum.
