3-Butylpyridine(CAT: L025690) is a monoalkyl-substituted pyridine derivative featuring a butyl group at the 3-position of the aromatic nitrogen-containing ring. This compound combines the electronic properties of pyridine with the lipophilic character of a straight-chain alkyl group, making it useful in coordination chemistry, ionic liquid development, and organic synthesis. It serves as a ligand in transition metal complexes and as a precursor in the design of functional materials and pharmaceuticals. The positional substitution influences both steric and electronic behavior, offering tailored reactivity.
