3-Bromo-2-ethylpyridine

Description:
3-Bromo-2-ethylpyridine is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with a bromine atom at the 3-position and an ethyl group at the 2-position. Its molecular formula is C9H10BrN, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, bromine, and nitrogen atoms. The compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It has a distinct aromatic odor, characteristic of pyridine derivatives. 3-Bromo-2-ethylpyridine is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the ethyl group and the aromatic ring. This compound is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its reactivity and ability to participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as brominated compounds can be hazardous.
