6-Hydroxynicotinamide, also known as 6-Hydroxy-1-pyridinecarboxamide, is a derivative of niacinamide (nicotinamide) and is characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group at the 6-position of the pyridine ring. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, soluble in water and various organic solvents, which makes it useful in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and biochemistry. It exhibits properties that may contribute to its role in cellular metabolism and potential therapeutic effects, particularly in relation to skin health and anti-inflammatory activities. The molecular structure includes a pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing one nitrogen atom, and an amide functional group, contributing to its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. 6-Hydroxynicotinamide is also studied for its potential antioxidant properties and its role in modulating cellular processes, making it a subject of interest in research related to aging and metabolic disorders.
