General description
3-methylpyridine acts as a nucleophile in cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of aryl-pyridine bonds and facilitating the synthesis of pyridine derivatives. It is used as a precursor in the synthesis of niacin (vitamin B3)

In a previous work (J. Phys. Chem. B 2003, 107, 9837), we reported liquid-liquid-phase splitting at negative pressures in mixtures of H2O + D2O + 3-methylpyridine (3-MP) at the limit of pure H2O as the solvent, thus extending for the
