α-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-pyridineacetonitrile（Cat No.:R044378）is an aromatic organic compound featuring a 4-bromophenyl group, a pyridine ring, and a nitrile (-CN) functional group attached to a central methylene bridge. This structure makes it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials. The presence of both electron-withdrawing (nitrile and bromine) and heteroaromatic (pyridine) moieties allows for versatile reactivity in cross-coupling and nucleophilic substitution reactions. It is particularly useful in medicinal chemistry for building complex, bioactive scaffolds with potential applications in targeting neurological, inflammatory, or oncological pathways during drug development.
