Ethyl 5-bromo-6-methyl-3-pyridinecarboxylate

Description:
Ethyl 5-bromo-6-methyl-3-pyridinecarboxylate is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a bromine atom at the 5-position and a methyl group at the 6-position of the pyridine ring contributes to its unique reactivity and properties. As an ester, it features an ethyl group attached to the carboxylate functional group, which influences its solubility and volatility. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its ability to undergo various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. The bromine substituent can serve as a leaving group or a site for further functionalization, making it a versatile intermediate in synthetic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks typical of halogenated organic substances.
