Description and Uses

2-Acetylpyridine: a widely used food additive
2-Acetylpyridine, also named 1-(2-pyridinyl)ethanone or methyl 2-pyridyl ketone, is a "popcorn"-like compound and often used as the food additive and flavouring substance in tobacco, ice cream, milk, cooked rice and other food products. Generally, 2-acetylpyridine exists in a colorless to yellowish liquid and can be naturally found in rice, hazelnuts, Yahonkaoluo leaves and cocoa. Studies have also suggested that it can be used as an intermediate to synthesize a series of chemical compounds with antiviral activity. For example, Abid et al. prepared the various oxime ether derivatives of 2-acetylpyridine and evaluated their antiamoebic activities against the HM1:IMSS strain of E. histolytica[1].

2-Acetylpyridine used as flavoring agent. It is also used in application for food additive.
