Adding a certain compound to certain chemical reactions, such as: 16665-38-6, (4-Methoxypyridin-2-yl)methanol, can increase the reaction rate and produce products with better performance than those obtained under traditional synthetic methods. Here is a downstream synthesis route of the compound, 16665-38-6, blongs to pyridine-derivatives compound. Formula: C7H9NO2
14. 2-Chloromethyl-4-methoxypyridine hydrochloride 15 ml of thionyl chloride are added dropwise to a solution, cooled to -10 C., of 10 g (0.072 mole) of 2-hydroxymethyl-4-methoxypyridine in 30 ml of dry chloroform in the course of 15 minutes. The solution is allowed to come to room temperature and stirring is continued for one and a half hours. After the solvent and the excess thionyl chloride have been stripped off, colorless crystals are obtained, and these are recrystallized from isopropanol [12.1 g (87%), m.p. 149-150 C., decomposition].
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,16665-38-6, its application will become more common.
