Application

2-Chloro-3-iodopyridine serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) through sequential functionalization of its halogen sites. The compound is particularly valuable in constructing pyridine-based kinase inhibitors and antimicrobial agents via transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling. Its differential halogen reactivity enables orthogonal modification strategies in medicinal chemistry workflows. Researchers also utilize it as a precursor for radiolabeling (125I) in PET tracer development.
