Product Information

• Name: 4-Bromopyridine hydrochloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Bromopyridine HCl is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H5BrN. It is an aromatic heterocycle and is used in organic synthesis as a coupling partner in cross-coupling reactions. The bromine atom of 4-bromopyridine is replaced by chloride, resulting in 4-chloropyridine. The chlorination reaction can be conducted using either hydrochloric acid or thionyl chloride. This process can be done on an industrial scale and the chlorinated product has been used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and pesticides. The reaction mechanism for this substitution reaction involves a nucleophilic attack by chlorine on the pyridine ring at carbon atom 2 followed by displacement of hydrogen from the adjacent position on nitrogen atom 3. Acylation reactions are oxidation processes that involve conversion of carboxylic acids to acyl halides or acyl chlorides through treatment with acidified halogenating agents such
