Overview of 2-Cyanopyridine

2-Cyanopyridine is a colorless to pale yellow crystalline compound widely used in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and industrial chemical synthesis. It serves as a crucial intermediate in the production of vitamins, drugs, pesticides, and fine chemicals. Its nitrile functional group and heterocyclic pyridine ring provide high chemical reactivity, making it valuable in organic synthesis and industrial applications.

In industrial processes, 2-Cyanopyridine is valued for its high purity, consistent quality, and reliable reactivity. It is often used alongside Pyridine, 3-Cyanopyridine, Acetamide, and 2-Aminopyridine, available on ChemicalBull, providing formulators and manufacturers with versatile options for chemical and pharmaceutical synthesis.
