General description
Methyl nicotinate (or nicotinic acid methyl ester) is used as a rubefacient for the relief of pains in muscles, tendons, and joints. It is also used in food as a flavoring agent.
Application
Methyl nicotinate can be used as a precursor:
- In the asymmetric synthesis of 1-azasugars (glycosidase inhibitors) for biomedical applications.
- In the total synthesis of ±-sesbanine.
