What is 2-Benzylpyridine?

Chemical properties

2-Benzylpyridine is a clear yellow to brown liquid or pale straw-colored oily liquid. Poorly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils. Powerful green vegetable type odor with considerable resemblance to the odor of raw stringbeans (or “Haricots-verts”). The warm-herbaceous undertone is often accompanied by traces of a protein-like terminal note, possibly impurity-odor. Moderate tenacity.
