Methylpyridinium is a chemical compound which is the quaternary ammonium compound derived from the N-methylation of pyridine. It is found in some coffee products.[1] It is not present in unroasted coffee beans, but is formed during roasting from its precursor chemical, trigonelline.[1] It is under investigation by scientists regarding its potential anti-carcinogenic properties,[2] particularly an effect on colon cancer.[1]
Ionic liquid[]
The chloride of N-methylpyridinium behaves as an ionic liquid in the molten state. Its properties with different mixtures of zinc chloride have been characterised by several authors in the temperature range 150–200 °C (423–473 K).[3][4][5][6]
