3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine

Description:

3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with a bromine atom at the 3-position and a methyl group at the 4-position. Its molecular formula is C6H6BrN, indicating the presence of six carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, one bromine atom, and one nitrogen atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It has a distinctive aromatic odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to the presence of the hydrophobic bromine and methyl groups. 3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine is used in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, as a building block for more complex molecules. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the bromine atom, making it a useful intermediate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.

CAS: 3430-22-6

3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine is a molecule that consists of a five-membered ring containing three bromine atoms and one carbon atom. It has the chemical formula C5H6BrN. The molecule contains two methyl groups attached to the pyridine ring (hence its name). 3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine has been shown to be an effective synthon for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, which are used in organic synthesis for the production of pharmaceuticals. This molecule is also an excellent ligand for metal ions, such as calcium and hydrogen, because it forms strong bonds with these ions. 3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine can be used as a bidentate ligand because it has two nitrogen atoms that can bind to metal ions. The molecule also has functional properties, such as photochromism and bilayer formation due to its symmetry.
