5-Bromo-6-methyl-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid

Description:
5-Bromo-6-methyl-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is substituted at the 5-position with a bromine atom and at the 6-position with a methyl group. The carboxylic acid functional group is located at the 2-position of the pyridine ring, contributing to its acidic properties. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of the carboxylic acid group. It may exhibit moderate to high reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, owing to the electron-withdrawing effects of the bromine atom. The presence of both the bromine and the carboxylic acid groups can influence its biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Additionally, its structural features may allow for various synthetic applications in organic chemistry, particularly in the development of agrochemicals or pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as halogenated compounds can pose environmental and health risks.
