(5-bromopyridin-3-yl)acetonitrile

Description:
(5-Bromopyridin-3-yl)acetonitrile is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring structure, which includes a bromine substituent at the 5-position and a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to an acetic acid derivative at the 3-position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its utility in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to the reactivity of the cyano group and the electrophilic nature of the bromine atom. The presence of the pyridine ring contributes to its aromatic properties and potential for hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility in polar and nonpolar solvents. Additionally, (5-bromopyridin-3-yl)acetonitrile may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
