2-(2-Cyano-4-pyridyl)acetic acid is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine and acetic acid functional groups. It features a cyano group (-CN) attached to the 2-position of a 4-pyridine ring, which contributes to its polar nature and potential for hydrogen bonding. The presence of the carboxylic acid group (-COOH) at the acetic acid moiety enhances its acidity and solubility in polar solvents. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit crystalline properties. Its molecular structure allows for various applications in medicinal chemistry and agrochemicals, particularly due to its potential biological activity. The compound's reactivity can be influenced by the electron-withdrawing cyano group, which may affect its interactions in chemical reactions. Additionally, it may serve as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
