2-Aminopyridine is an organic compound with the formula H2NC5H4N. It is one of three isomeric aminopyridines. It is a colourless solid that is used in the production of the drugs piroxicam, sulfapyridine, tenoxicam, and tripelennamine.[3] It is produced by the reaction of sodium amide with pyridine, the Chichibabin reaction.[4]

Reactions

[edit]
The bifunctionality of 2-aminopyridine is illustrated by this 1:2 adduct with maleic anhydride.[5]

Although 2-hydroxypyridine converts significantly to the pyridone tautomer, the related imine tautomer (HNC5H4NH) is less important for 2-aminopyridine.

2-Aminopyridine catalyzes the conversion of maleic anhydride to 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride.[6]

Toxicity

[edit]

The acute toxicity is indicated by the LD50 = 200 mg/kg (rat, oral).
