La piridina (fórmula molecular C5H5N, masa molecular: 79,10) es un líquido incoloro de olor desagradable, similar al pescado en mal estado. Pertenece a la familia de los compuestos heterocíclicos aromáticos , y está estructuralmente relacionada con el benceno, siendo la única diferencia entre ellos el reemplazo de un grupo CH del anillo bencénico por un átomo de nitrógeno. El olor puede llegar a ser nauseabundo y provocar estornudos.
