Description

3-Bromo-4-methylpyridine (CAS No. 3430-22-6) is a high-purity heterocyclic organic compound with the molecular formula C₆H₆BrN. This versatile brominated pyridine derivative is widely utilized as a key intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, agrochemical production, and advanced material research. Our product is rigorously tested to ensure ≥96% purity by GC analysis, making it ideal for demanding applications in medicinal chemistry and cross-coupling reactions.

The compound features a reactive bromine substituent at the 3-position and a methyl group at the 4-position of the pyridine ring, offering excellent opportunities for further functionalization through metal-catalyzed coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Stille, or Negishi couplings). Supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid with characteristic pyridine odor, it has a molecular weight of 172.02 g/mol and should be stored under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to maintain stability.

This product is particularly valuable in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules, with specific applications in developing JAK inhibitors like Tofacitinib intermediates. Our batch-controlled manufacturing process ensures consistent quality, supported by comprehensive analytical documentation including GC/MS, NMR, and HPLC data upon request.
