N-(3-Iodo-4-methoxy-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(3-Iodo-4-methoxy-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 898561-62-1; molecular formula C11H15IN2O2; molar mass 334.15 g/mol) is a halogenated pyridine building block in which a pivaloyl (2,2-dimethylpropanoyl) amide and a methoxy group flank a reactive carbon-iodine bond. It is used principally in chemical synthesis as an intermediate for transition-metal-catalysed cross-coupling and directed functionalisation. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade building block to pharmaceutical, agrochemical and fine-chemical laboratories worldwide.

Cross-coupling intermediate
The carbon-iodine bond on the pyridine ring is a versatile handle for palladium- or nickel-catalysed cross-couplings such as Suzuki-Miyaura, Negishi, Stille and Sonogashira reactions. This allows new carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds to be installed at the 3-position.
Pharmaceutical and agrochemical building block
As a multifunctional pyridine scaffold it serves as an intermediate in the discovery and preparation of pharmaceutical and agrochemical candidates. The pre-installed methoxy and pivalamide groups provide defined regiochemistry for onward elaboration.
Directed metalation and functionalisation
The pivaloyl amide acts as both a protecting group for the ring nitrogen substituent and a directing group, supporting regioselective metalation and further functionalisation of the pyridine core.
Halogen-metal exchange
The iodide readily undergoes halogen-metal exchange with organolithium or organomagnesium reagents to generate a reactive organometallic species for reaction with electrophiles, extending the range of accessible derivatives.
Heterocyclic library synthesis
The compound is well suited to medicinal-chemistry and library synthesis where a substituted pyridine core with an orthogonal iodo handle is required for rapid analogue generation.
