4-Nitropicolinic Acid

Product Description

4-Nitropicolinic Acid is a heteroaromatic pyridine carboxylic-acid intermediate used in pharmaceutical research, medicinal chemistry, organic synthesis, and the development of advanced chemical compounds. It is also known as 4-Nitropyridine-2-carboxylic Acid, with CAS No. 13509-19-8, molecular formula C₆H₄N₂O₄, and molecular weight 168.11 g/mol. It is a nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compound based on a pyridine ring with a carboxylic acid group at the 2-position and a nitro group at the 4-position — a combination that makes it a useful building block for synthetic chemistry and pharmaceutical research.

Commercial sources describe 4-Nitropicolinic Acid as a solid, typically an off-white to colored crystalline or powder material, with reported purity commonly at approximately 98% or higher and a melting point in the range of roughly 150–160°C (some references cite ~152–153°C). Appearance and exact values can vary by supplier, grade, and manufacturing process, so the final specification should always be confirmed against the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA).

4-Nitropicolinic Acid serves as a pharmaceutical intermediate and heteroaromatic building block in medicinal chemistry synthesis programs, structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, and multi-step organic synthesis, where its carboxylic acid functionality and nitro-substituted pyridine ring are both useful synthetic handles. It is used by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, chemical research organizations, and academic laboratories, and can be supplied as part of custom synthesis and intermediate-development programs subject to technical feasibility and commercial agreement.
