2-Bromo-4-cyanopyridine(CAT: M052257) is a halogenated pyridine derivative featuring both bromine and cyano substituents on an aromatic nitrogen-containing ring. This compound is a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly valued in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and heterocyclic chemistry. The bromine atom at the 2-position enables cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki, Sonogashira, or Buchwald–Hartwig, while the cyano group at the 4-position allows for further functionalization or serves as a precursor to amidines, tetrazoles, or carboxylic acids. 2-Bromo-4-cyanopyridine is frequently used in the design of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules.
