Cinchomeronic acid is a chemical compound from the group of pyridinedicarboxylic acids . It was first verified by Hugo Weidel in 1868 .

Occurrence

Cinchomeronic is an intermediate of nicotinic acid - biosynthesis in bacteria.

Extraction and presentation

Cinchomeronic acid is obtained in particular as a breakdown product of various china alkaloids. For example, from quinine , cinchonidine , cinchonine and apoquinine by means of nitric acid or by oxidation of cinchonidic acid , β-collodine , lepidine or isoquinoline .

Cinchomeronic acid can be prepared by the oxidation of isoquinoline with potassium permanganate .

properties

Cinchomeronic acid is a white to beige solid that is sparingly soluble in water.
