2-Bromo-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-4-boronic acid

2-Bromo-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-4-boronic acid, with CAS number 2225170-30-7, is a highly functionalized pyridine derivative featuring a bromine atom, a trifluoromethyl group, and a boronic acid moiety. This unique combination of functional groups makes it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. The boronic acid group allows for facile participation in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, such as the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, enabling the formation of new carbon-carbon bonds. The bromine atom provides another site for further functionalization, while the trifluoromethyl group can impart specific electronic and steric properties to the final molecule, often enhancing metabolic stability or lipophilicity. It is typically employed in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science research where complex pyridine structures are desired.

• Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, eye protection, and a lab coat. Work in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood to avoid inhalation of dust or vapors. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Store in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive safety information before handling. Dispose of chemical waste according to local regulations.
