CAS 1721-26-2: Ethyl 2-methyl-3-pyridinecarboxylate

Ethyl 2-methylnicotinate is a synthetic compound that has been used in the synthesis of other compounds. It is derived from nicotinic acid and ethyl alcohol, and its chemical formula is C9H11NO2. The compound is decarboxylated to give ethoxycarbonyl, which reacts with quinolizine to form an amide. Ethyl 2-Methylnicotinate can be synthesized by reacting hydrochloric acid with an amide, or it can be obtained from the reaction of acetaldehyde and amine. This process produces an n-oxide as a byproduct, which can then be converted into other products. Ethyl 2-methylnicotinate has been shown to be useful for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. It reduces platelet aggregation in the blood vessels by inhibiting P2Y12 receptors, which are part of the G protein system that

Ethyl 2-methylpyridine-3-carboxylate was used in the preparation of amino esters such as ethyl 2(piperidinylaminomethyl)benzoate, ethyl 2-(N-benzyl-N-methylaminomethyl)benzoate, ethyl 2-(diethylaminomethyl)benzoate.
