Methyl Isonicotinate (CAS: 2459-09-8) is an important organic synthesis intermediate, mainly used in pharmaceutical production, but also a good industrial solvent. Methyl isonicotinate can be used in: The preparation of various photosensitizers for applications in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Synthesizing luminophore for luminescent metal-organic framework (MOF). Nonaqueous redox flow batteries as pyridine-based anolyte material that undergoes two reversible reductions in solutions with Li-ion electrolytes. With 4-Cyanopyridine (CAS: 100-48-1) as the starting raw material, 65% Sulfuric Acid was used for hydrolysis reaction to generate Isonicotinic Acid (CAS: 55-22-1), then toluene dehydration and 98% sulfuric acid as catalyst for esterification reaction, and finally washed with pure water to neutral, to get the crude product, distillation under high vacuum conditions, vacuum packaging of the finished product.
