Compound: 2-Bromo-4-formylpyridine
CAS#: 118289-17-1
MDL#: MFCD04039311
Background: 2-Bromo-4-formylpyridine is a functionalized pyridine building block whose bromine atom enables palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki and Stille couplings, while its aldehyde group supports nucleophilic addition, reduction, oxidation, and condensation reactions. It is a versatile intermediate for constructing substituted pyridine derivatives in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis.
