2-(bromomethyl)-5-nitro-pyridine

Description:
2-(Bromomethyl)-5-nitro-pyridine is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a bromomethyl group (-CH2Br) at the 2-position and a nitro group (-NO2) at the 5-position significantly influences its chemical properties and reactivity. This compound is typically a yellow to brown solid, and it is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethyl sulfoxide, but may have limited solubility in water. The bromomethyl group makes it a potential electrophile, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, while the nitro group can serve as a strong electron-withdrawing group, affecting the compound's reactivity and stability. Due to these functional groups, 2-(bromomethyl)-5-nitro-pyridine can be utilized in various synthetic applications, including the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks due to its bromine and nitro functionalities.
