5-Bromo-2-hydroxymethylpyridine

Description:
5-Bromo-2-hydroxymethylpyridine 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 hydroxymethyl group at the 2-position contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the hydroxymethyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. It is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The bromine substituent can participate in electrophilic substitution reactions, while the hydroxymethyl group can undergo further functionalization. Safety data indicates that, like many brominated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Overall, 5-Bromo-2-hydroxymethylpyridine is a versatile compound with applications in various fields of chemistry.
