Application
Methyl 6-formylnicotinate (CAS 10165-86-3) is a multifunctional heterocyclic building block featuring an aldehyde group at the 6-position and a methyl ester at the 3-position of the pyridine ring. It is widely used in medicinal chemistry for the synthesis of kinase inhibitors, antiviral agents, and antibacterial compounds. The aldehyde enables reductive amination, condensation, and Grignard additions, while the ester allows hydrolysis to the carboxylic acid or reduction to the alcohol, facilitating rapid structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. This intermediate is a key precursor for preparing substituted nicotinic acid derivatives, pyridine-based drug candidates targeting cancer and inflammatory diseases, and agrochemicals. Its rigid pyridine core enhances metabolic stability and target binding affinity. High purity ensures reproducible results in high-throughput screening and scalable GMP synthesis.
