Nicotinic acid N-oxide was used in a study to develop liquid chromatographic method for determination of free nicotinic acid and its metabolites in plasma and urine. It was used to synthesize and characterize peroxo complexes of vanadium(V) and molybdenum (VI) with nicotinic acid and nicotinic acid N-oxide.
ChEBI: Oxiniacic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid and a member of pyridines.
Nicotinic acid N-oxide acts as a ligand and forms lead-carboxylate complexes having phosphorescent properties.
