5-Bromo-4-chloro-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine（Cat No.:L013802）is a halogenated heterocyclic compound featuring a pyrimidine ring substituted with a bromine at position 5, a chlorine at position 4, and a methylthio (-SCH₃) group at position 2. This molecule serves as a valuable intermediate in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis due to its electrophilic halogen atoms and nucleophilic sulfur functionality. The electron-deficient pyrimidine ring allows for selective substitution reactions, particularly nucleophilic aromatic substitution. Its structure supports the creation of more complex heterocycles and biologically active compounds, making it useful in drug discovery and fine chemical development.
