If you decide to place an order during this period, we reserve the right to adjust the price based on the evolving situation. We understand that market changes may cause inconvenience. We will negotiate with you if there’s a significant price fluctuation due to tariff policy changes before the order’s actual delivery, and in such cases we may adjust or cancel the order as necessary.

We are planning system maintenance between Friday, Apr 11 at 9:00 PM CDT and Saturday, Apr 12 at 9:00 AM CDT. This will impact both web and offline transactions, including online orders, quotes, price and availability checks, and order status inquiries. We apologize for any inconvenience.

General description

Pyridine is a basic N-heterocyclic compound. It acts as nitrogen donor ligand and forms many metal-pyridine complexes. Its complexes having tetrahedral and octahedral geometries can be differentiated by infra-red spectral investigations.[1]

Application

Pyridine (py) may be used in the preparation of vanadium oxide nanoparticles[2] and iron benzenedicarboxylates, Fe(OH)(BDC)(py)0.85 (BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, py = pyridine).[3] It may be employed as catalyst in Knoevenagel condensation reaction.[4]
Pyridine may be used as a base for the conversion of:
  • Alkyltrichlorosilanes to trimethoxyalkylsilanes, which are used as precursors for preparing alkylsilicates.[5]
  • 1-Indanone to 1-indanone oxime, which can undergo reductive ring-expansion to form tetrahydroquinoline.[6]

It may also be used to catalyze the borylation reaction of haloarenes to form arylboronates without using transition metal catalysts.[7]

Predictions of global increased temperature are for 1.8-4 °C by 2100. Increased temperature as an abiotic stress may exert a considerable influence on the levels of secondary metabolites in plants. These secondary metabolites may possibly exert biological activities beneficial in prevention
