3-Bromo-5-hydroxypicolinonitrile(CAT: L016314) is a heterocyclic compound derived from picolinonitrile, featuring a bromine atom at the 3-position, a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 5-position, and a nitrile group (-CN) attached to the pyridine ring. This structure combines both electron-withdrawing (nitrile) and electron-donating (hydroxyl) groups, which can influence the compound’s reactivity and interactions in biological systems. It is commonly used as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. The bromine atom allows for further functionalization through cross-coupling reactions, making it useful in constructing more complex molecules for drug design or material science applications.
