5-Bromo-7-azaindole (Cat No.: M041788) is a halogenated heterocyclic compound featuring a bromine atom at the 5-position of the 7-azaindole scaffold, a bicyclic structure combining a pyrrole and pyridine ring. This molecule serves as a versatile building block in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, particularly for designing kinase inhibitors and other bioactive compounds. The bromine atom enables cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Sonogashira), while the nitrogen-rich core enhances binding affinity to biological targets, making it valuable for synthesizing targeted therapeutic agents and research probes.
