Product Information

• Name: 3-Benzoylpyridine
• Synonyms: Phenyl 3-pyridyl ketone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Benzoylpyridine is a natural product that has been isolated from the plant Plectranthus fruticosus. It is an aromatic compound, with a trifluoromethyl group and a hydroxy group. 3-Benzoylpyridine has been shown to react with amines in the presence of hydrogen gas to form 1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives. This reaction is catalyzed by light or UV irradiation. The absorption maxima for 3-benzoylpyridine are at 270 nm and 330 nm in water and ethanol, respectively. In addition, 3-benzoylpyridine is able to combine with hydroxide ions to form the corresponding salt, which can be reduced to yield the nitrogen containing heterocyclic ring (3-benzo[b]pyridin).
