N-[4-(tert-Butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxymethyl)-pyridin-2-yl]-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-[4-(tert-Butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxymethyl)-pyridin-2-yl]-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 618107-92-9, C17H30N2O2Si, molar mass 322.52) is an organosilicon pyridine building block. It pairs a TBS (tert-butyldimethylsilyl) ether-protected hydroxymethyl group at the 4-position with a pivaloyl amide on the 2-aminopyridine. This dual protection makes it a versatile intermediate for the directed metalation and functionalisation of pyridine scaffolds in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical synthesis. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade reagent for synthetic chemistry programmes.

Pyridine building block for synthesis
Serves as a multi-functional heterocyclic intermediate for constructing substituted 2-aminopyridine and pyridinemethanol scaffolds. The protected handles allow selective, stepwise elaboration in medicinal and fine-chemical chemistry.
Protected hydroxymethyl handle
The tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ether masks a benzylic-type hydroxymethyl group, giving a stable yet readily cleavable point for later deprotection and onward functional-group interconversion.
Pivaloyl-directed functionalisation
The 2,2-dimethylpropionamide (pivaloyl) group both protects the 2-amino position and can act as a directing group for regioselective metalation or C-H functionalisation of the pyridine ring.
Pharmaceutical intermediate
Used in early-stage and process research as an organosilicon building block towards pyridine-containing active pharmaceutical ingredients and candidate molecules. Specific routes depend on the customer's target.
Research and method development
Suitable for laboratory-scale route scouting, organometallic reagent preparation and protecting-group strategy studies where a doubly protected aminopyridinemethanol motif is required.
