3-Bromo-2-nitropyridine

Ref. 3D-FB55385

Product Information

• Name: 3-Bromo-2-nitropyridine
• Synonyms: 2-Nitro-3-bromopyridine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Bromo-2-nitropyridine is a lactam that can be synthesized by the reaction of dichloride and palladium. It can be isolated in high yields from the sequence of reactions involving cross-coupling, isolation, and reduction. 3-Bromo-2-nitropyridine has been shown to act as a hydroxamic acid derivative and targets indoles. Hydroxamic acids are compounds that contain an amino group (NH2) attached to a hydroxy group (OH). The compound is activated by oxidation of the hydroxy group to produce a reactive OH group, which reacts with other molecules to form new bonds. 3-Bromo-2-nitropyridine has been used in mediated metabolic studies as an intermediate in the synthesis of indoles.
