Two major coenzymes involved in various crucial metabolic reactions in<br />

cells, NAD (also known as coenzyme1) and NADP (also known as coen<br />

yme II), are derived from nicotinamide.<br />

<strong>The</strong> majority of alkaloids contain a piperidine or pyridine ring structure, a<br />

mong them piperine (constitutes one of the sharp-tasting contents of blac<br />

k and white pepper) and nicotine. <strong>The</strong>ir structures are shown below.<br />

Pyridine which was once extracted from coal tar but is now prepared cat<br />

alytically from ammonia and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is a crucial interme<br />

diate and solvent used to manufacture other compounds. Vinylpyridines a<br />

re crucial monomer building blocks of plastics, and fully saturated piperidi<br />

ne, pyridine are used as chemical raw material and rubber processing.<br />
