The chemical synthesis method of 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine, although it is not contained in the ancient book Tiangong Kaiwu, it can be done by modern chemical methods today. There are two common synthesis paths.
First, 3-hydroxypyridine is used as the starting material. First, 3-hydroxypyridine is dissolved in a suitable organic solvent, such as dichloromethane or N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and cooled to 0-5 ° C. With stirring, slowly add an iodine source, such as iodine elemental substance (I _ 2) and a suitable oxidizing agent, such as hydrogen peroxide (H _ 2O _ 2) or sodium periodate (NaIO _). This oxidant can promote the electrophilic substitution reaction between iodine and a specific position on the pyridine ring. During the reaction, the No. 2 position on the pyridine ring is more susceptible to iodine attack due to the localization effect of hydroxyl groups. When the reaction is continuously stirred for several times, the reaction progress is monitored by TLC (thin layer chromatography). After the reaction is completed, the reaction is quenched with water, the product is extracted with an organic solvent, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, the solvent is removed by vacuum distillation, and then separated and purified by column chromatography to obtain pure 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine.
Second, 3-hydroxypyridine can be properly protected first to avoid unnecessary side reactions. If the hydroxyl group is protected by acetyl group, 3-hydroxypyridine is reacted with acetic anhydride under the catalysis of pyridine to obtain 3-acetoxypyridine. After that, it is dissolved in a suitable solvent, and an iodine source and catalyst, such as ferric chloride (FeCl), are added at low temperature. Ferric chloride can activate iodine and promote the electrophilic substitution reaction at the No. 2 position of the pyridine ring. After the reaction is completed, it is hydrolyzed under alkaline conditions to remove the acetyl protecting group and restore the hydroxyl group. After hydrolysis, the product is also separated and purified by extraction, drying, distillation and column chromatography, and the final product is 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine.

2-Iodine-3-hydroxypyridine is one of the organic compounds. During storage and transportation, many matters must be paid attention to.
First word storage. The properties of this compound may be unstable and easily disturbed by external factors. First, it needs to be stored in a cool place away from light. Direct sunlight often causes photochemical reactions in compounds, causing their structures to mutate and lose their original characteristics. Second, humidity is also the key. Moisture is easy to interact with compounds, or cause reactions such as hydrolysis. Therefore, it should be placed in a dry place, and a desiccant can be prepared for storage to keep the environment dry. Third, in terms of chemical properties, 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine contains hydroxyl groups and iodine atoms, which may react violently when exposed to alkalis, strong oxidants and other substances. It is necessary to store it separately from such chemicals to prevent accidents.
As for transportation, there are also many points. First, the packaging must be tight. Appropriate packaging materials should be selected to ensure that there is no risk of leakage during transportation. If the packaging is damaged, not only the compound itself will be damaged, but also it may cause harm to the surrounding environment and personnel. Second, the temperature and humidity of the transportation environment need to be controlled. Extreme temperature changes may change the state of the compound, or even cause reactions such as decomposition. Third, during transportation, severe vibration and collision should be avoided. Strong vibration may cause damage to the packaging, or cause changes in the internal structure of the compound. Fourth, transportation personnel should be familiar with the characteristics of the compound and emergency treatment methods. In the event of an accident, such as leakage, etc., it can be properly disposed of in time to reduce the damage.
In short, the storage and transportation of 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine requires careful attention to various factors such as light, humidity, temperature, packaging, vibration and personnel knowledge to ensure its safety and stability.

2-Iodine-3-hydroxypyridine, an organic compound, poses several safety risks in experimental and industrial applications and cannot be ignored.
Bear the brunt, this substance is potentially toxic. Oral ingestion, inhalation or skin contact may endanger human health. Oral ingestion may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, etc.; inhalation of its dust or vapor, or irritation of the respiratory tract, causing cough, asthma, and even damage to lung function; skin contact, or allergic reactions or irritation such as allergies, redness, and itching.
Furthermore, 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine also poses risks in the environment. If it accidentally leaks into the environment, or causes pollution to aquatic ecosystems, soils, etc., its presence in water may endanger aquatic organisms and affect the ecological balance of water bodies; in soil, or affect the activity of soil microorganisms and soil fertility, and then affect plant growth.
In addition, this substance may be chemically dangerous under specific conditions. In case of open flames, hot topics, or the risk of combustion and explosion. And it encounters strong oxidants, or undergoes violent chemical reactions, resulting in safety accidents.
Therefore, when using, storing and transporting 2-iodine-3-hydroxypyridine, it is necessary to strictly follow safety operating procedures. The user should wear appropriate protective equipment, such as protective clothing, gloves and protective glasses, to avoid direct contact; the operation should be carried out in a well-ventilated place to prevent inhalation of its vapor or dust. When storing, it should be placed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat sources, and stored separately from oxidants. Do not mix. During transportation, it is also necessary to ensure that the packaging is intact to prevent leakage. In this way, the relevant safety risks can be effectively avoided to ensure the safety of personnel and the environment.
