In the field of materials science, 4-hydroxypyridine oxide also has important uses. First, when preparing high-performance polymer materials, it can be introduced as a functional monomer. Because of its hydroxyl and pyridine oxide structures, it can endow polymers with special properties, such as improving the solubility, thermal stability and mechanical properties of polymers. Second, in the preparation of conductive polymer materials, 4-hydroxypyridine oxide can participate in the reaction, adjust the electronic structure of the material, improve the electrical conductivity of the material, and then provide the possibility for the development of new conductive materials.
In the field of organic synthesis, 4-hydroxypyridine oxide is often used as an important reagent in organic synthesis. On the one hand, the oxygen atom on the pyridine ring has a certain nucleophilicity, which can react with a variety of electrophilic reagents to realize functional group modification on the pyridine ring, so as to construct organic compounds with diverse structures. On the other hand, its hydroxyl groups can also participate in esterification, etherification and other reactions, which further enriches the strategies and methods of organic synthesis and provides an effective way for the synthesis of complex organic molecules.

The physical properties of 4-hydroxypyridine oxide are as follows:
This substance is mostly crystalline solid at room temperature and has high stability. Its melting point is between 145 and 148 ° C. Due to the hydrogen bonds and lattice structure in the molecule, a specific energy is required to destroy the lattice, and the melting point is within this range.
In terms of solubility, 4-hydroxypyridine oxide is soluble in water, alcohols (such as methanol, ethanol) and some polar organic solvents. In water, its hydroxyl groups, pyridine rings and oxide parts can interact with water molecules through hydrogen bonds to improve solubility; in alcohol solvents, it can also be well miscible due to similar compatibility principles and the formation of hydrogen bonds.
In appearance, pure is often white to light yellow crystalline powder. This color characteristic is derived from the absorption and reflection characteristics of its molecular structure to light. Its powder morphology is conducive to storage, transportation and subsequent processing.
In addition, 4-hydroxypyridine oxide has a certain degree of hygroscopicity. When there is sufficient water vapor in the air, its surface can absorb water molecules, causing changes in water content. When storing, attention should be paid to moisture protection to prevent affecting the quality and characteristics.
Its density is about 1.49 g/cm ³, which is related to the molecular weight and the degree of molecular arrangement. The tight molecular arrangement and relatively high molecular mass make it have this density characteristic, which is of great significance for application scenarios involving the relationship between mass and volume.

Boron groups and their oxides have unique chemical properties. Among boron oxides, diboron trioxide is quite common, in the form of colorless glass, with a high melting point of 1860 Kelvin. Its chemical properties are active and can react with many substances. When exposed to water, it reacts rapidly to form boric acid. The reaction is as follows: $B_ {2} O_ {3} + 3H_ {2} O = 2H_ {3} BO_ {3} $.
Boron oxides have acidic oxide properties and can react with bases. For example, when reacting with sodium hydroxide, sodium borate is formed with water. The reaction equation is: $B_ {2} O_ {3} + 2NaOH = 2NaBO_ {2} + H_ {2} O $. And at high temperatures, it can react with some metal oxides to form boron-containing double salts.
The chemical properties of boron are also more active. At room temperature, it is relatively stable in air, but when heated, it can react violently with oxygen to form diboron trioxide. The reaction is: $4B + 3O_ {2}\ stackrel {\ Delta }{=\!=\!=} 2B_ {2} O_ {3} $.
Boron can react with acids, such as hot concentrated nitric acid or concentrated sulfuric acid, to be oxidized to boric acid. Reaction with concentrated nitric acid is as follows: $B + 3HNO_ {3} (concentrated) \ stackrel {\ Delta }{=\!=\! =} H_ {3} BO_ {3} + 3NO_ {2}\ uparrow $.
Boron also has certain reductivity. At high temperature, some metal oxides can be reduced to metal elements. For example, when reacted with iron oxide, iron elements can be reduced. The reaction formula is: $2B + Fe_ {2} O_ {3}\ stackrel {high temperature }{=\!=\!=} 2Fe + B_ {2} O_ {3} $.
In addition, boron and its oxides are widely used in materials science, chemical industry and other fields. Boron oxides can be used as glass additives to enhance the heat resistance and chemical stability of glass; boron elements also play an important role in semiconductor materials, used in the manufacture of special alloys, etc., which is of great significance to the development of modern industry.

4-Hydroxypyridine oxide is an important intermediate in organic synthesis, and its synthesis methods are diverse. The following are common ones:
1. ** Direct oxidation method **: Pyridine is used as the starting material and oxidation is achieved by the action of oxidants. Commonly used oxidants include hydrogen peroxide, peracid, etc. Taking hydrogen peroxide as an example, in the presence of a suitable catalyst such as sodium tungstate, pyridine reacts with hydrogen peroxide to obtain 4-hydroxypyridine oxide. This method is short in steps, but the reaction conditions need to be carefully controlled, otherwise it is easy to cause excessive oxidation and reduce the yield. The reaction is roughly as follows: pyridine and hydrogen peroxide at a specific temperature and catalyzed by sodium tungstate, through a series of electron transfer and chemical bond rearrangement, the hydroxyl group replaces the hydrogen at a specific position on the pyridine ring to form the target product.
2. ** Indirect synthesis method **:
- ** First substituted and then oxidized **: First introduce a suitable substituent on the pyridine ring, and then oxidize. For example, first let the pyridine react with a halogenated reagent, introduce a halogen atom at a specific position in the pyridine ring, and then replace the halogen atom with a hydroxyl group through a nucleophilic substitution reaction, and finally oxidize to the corresponding oxide. This approach can precisely control the position of the substituent and improve the selectivity of the product For example, pyridine reacts with bromine under specific conditions to obtain bromopyridine, and then reacts with hydroxyl-containing nucleophiles. After a series of reactions, it can be oxidized to obtain 4-hydroxypyridine oxide.
- ** Synthesis by pyridine derivatives **: Select suitable pyridine derivatives and convert them into functional groups. For example, using 4-methylpyridine as raw material, methyl is oxidized to carboxyl groups first, and then the carboxyl group is converted into hydroxyl groups through a series of reactions, and finally the pyridine ring is oxidized to obtain 4-hydroxypyridine oxide. This method requires multiple steps and a long process, but it can take advantage of the unique properties of pyridine derivatives to achieve specific synthetic purposes.
3. Electrochemical synthesis method: In an electrochemical system, pyridine is oxidized to 4-hydroxypyridine oxide by electrode reaction. This method is environmentally friendly, the reaction conditions are relatively mild, and the reaction process can be controlled by adjusting electrode potential, current and other parameters. In a suitable electrolyte, a specific electrode material is used as the anode, and pyridine oxidizes on the surface of the anode to gradually generate 4-hydroxypyridine oxide. This method has innovation and development potential, but the current industrial application may have certain limitations and needs to be further studied and optimized.

4-Hydroxypyridine and its oxides have many things to pay attention to when storing and transporting.
When storing, the first choice of environment. It should be found in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place, because the material may be sensitive to humidity and temperature. If the environment is humid, it may cause moisture absorption and deterioration, which will affect the quality; if the temperature is too high, it may also cause chemical reactions and damage its chemical properties. And it needs to be kept away from fires and heat sources. Because of its certain chemical activity, it may be dangerous to encounter open flames, hot topics. At the same time, it should be stored separately from oxidants, acids, bases, etc. to prevent dangerous interactions. The chemical properties of various chemicals are different, and mixed storage is prone to accidents.
As for transportation, the packaging must be tight. Choose suitable packaging materials to ensure that there is no leakage or damage during transportation. Because if the substance leaks, or pollutes the environment, it may even endanger the safety of transporters and surrounding people. The transportation process should follow relevant regulations and standards. Transportation personnel need to be professionally trained and familiar with the characteristics of the transported goods and emergency treatment methods. Transportation vehicles should also be equipped with corresponding fire equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment to deal with emergencies. And when transporting, they should follow the prescribed route to avoid densely populated areas and busy traffic sections, reduce transportation risks and ensure public safety.
