2-Bromopyridine is a derivative of pyridine where a bromine atom is attached at the 2-position on the ring. It's a colorless liquid and a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly for reactions involving C-N bond formation. 2-bromopyridine can be synthesized from 2-aminopyridine through diazotization and bromination.

Industrial Uses

1. Polymers & Resins

  • Reagent: it is used in polymer chemistry as a building block and reactant in various reactions, particularly for forming new C-N bonds and in cross-coupling reactions. 
  • Intermediate: It's also used in the synthesis of other molecules, including those with thiol functional groups, and in the production of some polymers, such as polyaniline derivatives. 

2. Pharmaceuticals

  • Intermediate: It is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of various drug molecules. Its bromine-substituted pyridine ring serves as a building block for bioactive compounds, including antimalarial agents and beta-adrenoceptor agonists. 

3. Agrochemicals

  • Intermediate: It is used in agrochemicals primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of other compounds, rather than as a direct pesticide itself. It's a building block for creating more complex molecules with pesticidal properties. 

4. Performance Chemicals

  • Intermediate: It is a useful building block in organic synthesis, particularly for introducing a 2-pyridyl group into molecules. It can be used in various cross-coupling reactions, like the Stille coupling and Negishi coupling, to form new C-N bonds. 
  • Reagent: Be converted to 2-lithiopyridine, a versatile reagent, and utilized in the synthesis of compounds with thiol functional groups.
