2-Aminopyridine is an organic compound with the formula H2NC5H4N. It is one of three isomeric aminopyridines. It is a colourless solid that is used in the production of the drugs piroxicam, sulfapyridine, tenoxicam, and tripelennamine. It is produced by the reaction of sodium amide with pyridine, the Chichibabin reaction.[2]

Structure

Although 2-hydroxypyridine exists in significant amounts as the pyridone tautomer, the related imine tautomer (HNC5H4NH) is less important for 2-aminopyridine.
