Dinicotinic acid ( pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid ) is an organic compound that belongs to the group of heterocycles (more precisely: heteroaromatic compounds ). It belongs to the group of pyridinedicarboxylic acids and consists of a pyridine ring that has two carboxy groups in the 3- and 5-positions. The name is derived from nicotinic acid ( pyridine-3-carboxylic acid ), which has only one carboxy group in the 3-position on the pyridine ring .

Extraction and presentation

The compound is formed when pyridine tetracarboxylic acid or carbodinicotinic acid is heated .

properties

Dinicotinic acid

Dinicotinic acid is sparingly soluble in water and ether. It melts at 323 ° C and thus has the highest melting point of all pyridinedicarboxylic acids. When melted, it decarboxylates and decomposes into nicotinic acid :

Decarboxylation

The compound has a monoclinic crystal structure with the space group P 2 1 / c (space group no. 14) . Template: room group / 14
