2-Chloronicotinic acid is receiving much attention for its effective applications as a key precursor in the synthesis of pesticides and medicines. In this study, a strain ZJB-09149 converting 2-chloro-3-cyanopyridine to 2-chloronicotinic acid was newly isolated and identified as Rhodococcus erythropolis

A novel aliphatic nitrilase, REH16, was found in Ralstonia eutropha H16 and overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), and its enzymatic properties were studied. The temperature and pH optima were 37 °C and 6.6, respectively, and the best thermostability of the nitrilase

A new series of teraryl 2-(4'-alkoxybiphen-4-yl)-5-cyanopyridines (nO-PPPyCN, n = 2-8) compounds, bearing a cyanopyridine terminus, were synthesized using a short 2-step reaction with overall yields between 33% and 69%. Spectral analyses were in accord with the expected structures. Thermotropic behavior
