Description

Application

2-Picoline (2-Methylpyridine) was used to study the electron and proton transfer reactions of lumiflavin using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry.

2-Picoline was used in the synthetic pathway for the production of dearomatized, allylated and C-H bond activated pyridine derivatives.
