Pyridine is a six-membered aromatic heterocyclic compound with the chemical formula C₅H₅N, structurally similar to benzene but with one carbon-hydrogen unit replaced by a nitrogen atom. This colorless, water-soluble liquid has a distinctively unpleasant, fish-like odor. The nitrogen atom's lone pair of electrons is not part of the aromatic system, which makes pyridine weakly basic. Pyridine is a versatile chemical used as a solvent, a reagent, and a precursor to a vast number of products. Its derivatives are crucial in pharmaceuticals, such as niacin (a B vitamin), and in agrochemicals, including the herbicides paraquat and diquat.

It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance cont
