N-(5-Hydroxy-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(5-Hydroxy-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 898561-65-4; molecular formula C10H14N2O2; molar mass 194.23 g/mol) is a substituted pyridine building block in which a pivalamide group and a free hydroxyl are placed on the pyridine ring. The pivaloyl moiety serves as a robust amine-protecting group, while the phenolic-type hydroxyl offers a further site for functionalisation. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade heterocyclic intermediate for synthetic and medicinal chemistry.

Heterocyclic building block
Used as a functionalised pyridine scaffold in multistep organic synthesis. The combination of a protected amine and a free hydroxyl allows selective, sequential elaboration of the ring.
Pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediate
Serves as an intermediate in the preparation of more complex pyridine-containing molecules of interest in medicinal and agrochemical research programmes.
Pivaloyl-protected amine handle
The 2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (pivalamide) group provides a sterically hindered, hydrolytically stable protecting group for the ring amine, enabling chemistry to be directed to other positions.
Site for O-functionalisation
The 5-hydroxy group offers a convenient point for etherification, acylation or cross-coupling, supporting the construction of structurally diverse pyridine derivatives.
Discovery and laboratory research
Supplied for use in research and development, method development and structure-activity studies where a defined pyridine intermediate is required.
