Isonicotinamide (pyridine-4-carboxamide) is the amide form of isonicotinic acid. It is an isomer of nicotinamide, which has the carboxamide group in the 3-position.^[1]

It is soluble in water at 191 gm/L, also in ethanol, DMSO, methanol, chloroform, chloroform methanol mixture, and in dioxane 10 mg/L. This compound is used for material synthesis and is generally recognised as safe.^[2]

Compounds in which the amide nitrogen is connected to another, and then doubly-bonded, are called isonicotinoylhydrazones.^[3]
