4-Bromo-2-methylpyridine Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Light yellow liquid

Uses

4-Bromo-2-methylpyridine is used as a starting material in the preparation of crown-ester-bipyridines and viologens through sodium or nickel reductive coupling, side chain oxidation and esterification. Further, it serves as an important raw material and intermediate in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and in dyes.

Uses

4-Bromo-2-methylpyridine is a starting material used in a synthesis of crown-ester-bipyridines and viologens via sodium or nickel reductive coupling, side chain oxidation and esterification.

Uses

Used in the preparation of phenyloxadiazolyl pyridines as immunomodulating agents.
