And in scientific research and exploration, 4-pyriformamide is also a commonly used reagent for researchers. It can be used for catalytic reactions, coordination chemistry research, etc., to help reveal chemical laws and promote the continuous progress of chemical disciplines. In short, 4-pyriformamide plays a pivotal role in many fields and plays a key role.

4-Pyridineformamide, its physical properties are as follows:
This substance is mostly white to light yellow crystalline powder at room temperature, and its texture is fine. Its melting point is between 153-155 ° C. Within this temperature limit, it gradually melts from solid to liquid. This property is quite useful in the preparation of many chemical processes and materials. It can be used for precise temperature control to achieve specific process purposes.
4-pyridineformamide can exhibit a certain solubility in water, and when the temperature increases, its solubility in water also increases, but in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, the solubility is better. This dissolution property allows for the selection of suitable solvents according to actual needs during extraction, separation and chemical reactions, so as to promote the smooth progress of the reaction or the effective purification of the product.
Its density is about 1.26 g/cm ³, and this density data is of great significance for the consideration of material storage, transportation and distribution in different media. And this material has good stability. Under normal environmental conditions, it can be stored for a long time without changing its chemical properties. When encountering specific chemicals such as strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, and strong bases, it may react chemically, causing changes in its structure and properties.
In addition, 4-pyridineformamide has certain resistance to light and heat, and its properties are stable within a moderate light and temperature range. However, prolonged exposure to strong light or high temperatures may also affect its quality, so it is necessary to pay attention to the control of environmental conditions during storage.

4-Pyridineformamide, also known as isonicotinamide, is prepared by various methods, and the main ones are selected, which are described below.
First, 4-cyanopyridine is used as the starting material and can be obtained by hydrolysis. In a suitable reaction vessel, put 4-cyanopyridine, add an appropriate amount of water and a catalyst, such as sulfuric acid or sodium hydroxide. Sulfuric acid has strong catalytic ability and can promote the reaction of hydrolysis. The temperature is controlled within a certain range, usually in the state of heating and reflux, and the cyanyl group is gradually hydrolyzed to the amide group. After the reaction is completed, the pure 4-pyridineformamide can be obtained by appropriate separation and purification methods, such as crystallization, distillation, column chromatography, etc.
Second, prepared by the reaction of 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid with ammonia. 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid and excess ammonia are added to a specific reaction device with an appropriate condensing agent, such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), or a catalyst, to promote the reaction between the two. DCC can activate carboxyl groups and make it easier to react with ammonia. During the reaction, temperature, pressure and other conditions are controlled to make the reaction proceed in the direction of generating 4-pyridinecarboxylamide. After the reaction, the target product is obtained through the steps of separating impurities and refining.
Third, pyridine is used as the starting material and is prepared through multi-step reaction. Pyridine is halogenated to obtain halogenated pyridine, such as 4-halogenated pyridine. Then 4-halogenated pyridine is reacted with a cyanide reagent, and a cyano group is introduced to obtain 4-cyanopyridine. Later, as described in the first method, 4-pyridine formamide is prepared by hydrolysis. Although there are many steps in this way, the raw material pyridine is easy to obtain, and it is also a feasible method if the process is well controlled.
All these methods have advantages and disadvantages. When preparing, according to the availability of raw materials, cost, purity of the product and many other factors, weigh and choose.

4-Pyriformamide, when using, all the precautions should not be ignored. Its nature is a chemical substance, and when using it, the first thing to pay attention to is safety protection. Appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc., should be worn to prevent it from touching the skin and eyes, covering the risk of skin irritation and eye damage.
Furthermore, the place of use should be well ventilated. This substance may evaporate gas under specific conditions. If the ventilation is not smooth and the gas accumulates, it will not only affect the user's health, but also pose a latent risk. When operating, the operating procedures should also be strictly followed, and the dosage or use method should not be changed at will. Due to improper use, or deviation of experimental results, or accidents.
When storing, also pay attention to it. It should be placed in a dry and cool place, away from fire sources and oxidants. Due to its chemical properties, it can be heated, oxidized, or reacted violently, endangering safety. And it should be properly marked to prevent misuse.
After use, the remaining 4-pyriformamide and related waste should not be discarded at will. It must be properly disposed of in accordance with relevant regulations to avoid polluting the environment. During the entire use process, the operator should be familiar with emergency treatment methods. In case of accidents, such as skin contact, inhalation, etc., the correct measures should be taken quickly to reduce the harm.
