Home Chemistry Heterocyclic Building Blocks Pyridines (3-Methylpyridin-2-Yl)Methanol
Oxidation: The alcohol group (-OH) in the molecule can be oxidized to form an aldehyde or carboxylic acid depending on the reaction conditions and oxidizing agent used.
Substitution Reactions: The methyl group and the hydroxyl group (-OH) are potential sites for substitution reactions, where another functional group or atom replaces one of these groups.
Esterification: The alcohol group can react with a carboxylic acid in the presence of an acid catalyst to form an ester.
Reduction: The carbonyl group in an aldehyde or ketone can be reduced to an alcohol group, especially under mild reducing conditions.
Acylation: The nitrogen atom in the pyridine ring can undergo acylation reactions, where an acyl group (-CO-R) replaces one of the hydrogen atoms on the nitrogen atom.
Condensation Reactions: The molecule can undergo condensation reactions with suitable reagents to form larger molecules or polymers.
Grignard Reaction: The compound can react with a Grignard reagent to form a tertiary alcohol.
Heterocyclization: The pyridine ring can participate in heterocyclization reactions with appropriate reagents to form fused or spiro heterocyclic compounds.
