|Section2= |Section3= }} 3-Methylpyridine or 3-picoline, is an organic compound with formula 3-CH3C5H4N. It is one of three isomers of methylpyridine. This colorless liquid is a precursor to pyridine derivatives that have applications in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. Like pyridine, 3-methylpyridine is a colorless liquid with a strong odor. It is classified as a weak base. ==Synthesis== 3-Methylpyridine is produced industrially by the reaction of acrolein with ammonia: :2 CH2CHCHO + NH3 → 3-CH3C5H4N + 2 H2O This reaction is nonselective and a more efficient route starts with acrolein, propionaldehyde, and ammonia: :CH2CHCHO + CH3CH2CHO + NH3 → 3-CH3C5H4N + 2 H2O + H2 It may also be obtained as a co-product of pyridine synthesis from acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, and ammonia via Chichibabin pyridine synthesis. Approximately 9,000,000 kilograms were produced worldwide in 1989. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「3-Methylpyridine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
