4 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
4.1 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Alpha-picoline was rapidly absorbed by blood & penetrated into liver, heart, spleen, lungs, & muscles during 1St 10-20 min following oral admin of 0.5 g/kg to rats. It was excreted in urine during 1St 48 hr.

KUPOR VG; VOP PATOKHIMII BIOKHIM BELKOV DRUGIKH BIOL AKTIV SOEDIN: 51-2 (1972)


Addition of a methyl group onto the pyridine molecule increases the rate of absorption of the resultant picolines into the liver, kidney, & brain of rats. After ip injection of the picolines, pharmacokinetic parameters were greatly dependent upon the position of the methyl group. For example, the residence time for beta-picoline in liver, brain, & kidney was > that of alpha- or gamma-picoline. Elimination of all four pyridines was biphasic in nature, the first phase being more prolonged for pyridine & beta-picoline than for alpha- or gamma-picoline.

Zharikov GP et al; Deposited Doc (VINITI 1299-83): 11 pages (1983)


The substance is rapidly absorbed by the blood and penetrated into liver, heart, spleen, lungs, brain and muscles during the first 10 - 20 minutes after oral administration of 500 mg/kg to rats. It is excreted in urine mainly during the first 48 hrs after administration. Prevalent accumulation in the liver within 1 hr. Within 2 days however, the levels of the substance in the organs was decreased to traces.

4.2 Metabolism/Metabolites

... In rabbits and dogs /2-methylpyridine/ is oxidized to alpha-picolinic acid which is excreted in the urine. alpha-Picolinuric acid is also excreted by frogs administered alpha-picoline, but only in amounts less than 1% of the dose. In hens it is excreted partly as alpha-pyridinornithuric acid.

ITC/USEPA; Information Review #425 (Draft) Methylpyridines p.34 (1984)


/It was observed that/ 96% of a 100 mg/kg oral dose of 2-methylpyridine administered to rats was excreted in the urine as picolinuric acid.

ITC/USEPA; Information Review #425 (Draft) Methylpyridines p.34 (1984)


There also is evidence that 2-methylpyridine forms an N-methylated derivative in dogs.
