- ▸ Chemical intermediate: Building block for agrochemical, dye, and specialty-chemical synthesis.
- ▸ Solvent: Basic nitrogen-heterocycle solvent for organic reactions.
- ▸ Acid corrosion inhibition: Pyridine bases serve as corrosion-inhibitor components in acidizing systems.
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →Alkyl pyridine (CAS 68391-11-7) is a UVCB mixture of alkyl-substituted pyridine bases — nitrogen-heterocyclic aromatics. Pyridine bases of this class are used as solvents and as chemical intermediates in the synthesis of agrochemicals, dyes, and specialty chemicals. PubChem does not publish a discrete Uses record for this UVCB; applications are grounded to the pyridine-base class.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is alkyl pyridine?
Alkyl pyridine (CAS 68391-11-7) is a UVCB mixture of alkyl-substituted pyridine bases — nitrogen-heterocyclic aromatics. Pyridine bases of this class are used as solvents and as chemical intermediates in the synthesis of agrochemicals, dyes, and specialty chemicals.
What is pyridine (alkyl pyridine) used for?
As a class, pyridine bases serve as basic nitrogen-heterocycle solvents for organic reactions, as building blocks for agrochemical, dye, and specialty-chemical synthesis, and as corrosion-inhibitor components in acidizing systems used in oilfield acid treatments.
What is the CAS number for alkyl pyridine?
Alkyl pyridine is supplied under CAS 68391-11-7, a UVCB (mixture) of alkyl-substituted pyridine bases. Because it is a UVCB, composition varies by source; lot identity and specification are confirmed on the Certificate of Analysis.
What HS code applies to alkyl pyridine?
Alkyl pyridine classifies under HS 2933.39 — compounds containing an unfused pyridine ring, other. Confirm the destination-country tariff line with your customs broker.
What is the cost of bulk alkyl pyridine?
Bulk pricing depends on the alkyl-base composition and order volume. We supply manufacturers in drums, totes, and IBCs — request a bulk quote with your target specification and tonnage for current pricing, SDS, and CoA.
