- 2-Pyridinecarboxylic Acid, 5-Amino-, Ethyl Ester
- Ethyl 5-aminopyridine-2-carboxylate
Ethyl 5-aminopicolinate (EPA) is an ester that is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. It is a white to off-white solid with a melting point of about 103 degrees Celsius. EPA can be prepared by reacting ethoxycarbonyl chloride with pyridinecarboxylic acid. The yield of the reaction is about 80%. There are three major hydrolysis products, which are phthalic acid, succinic acid, and pyridinium chloride. The nature of EPA's ester group makes it soluble in organic solvents such as ethers, chloroform, and benzene.
