Application

2-Hydroxy-4-methylpyridine is suitable for use in a study to investigate the equilibrium of self-association of 2-pyrrolidone (A) and 2-hydroxyl-4-methyl-pyridine (B), also the hetero-association between A and B in [2H3] acetonitrile by NMR.

General description

2-Hydroxy-4-methylpyridine is formed by the tautomerization of 4-methyl pyridine during the synthesis of bis aldehydes.
