N-(5-Iodo-3-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(5-Iodo-3-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 677327-29-6; molecular formula C11H15IN2O; molar mass 318.15 g/mol) is a halogenated pyridine building block in which a 2-aminopyridine is protected as its pivalamide and carries an iodine at the 5-position and a methyl at the 3-position. The aryl iodide and the directing pivaloyl group make it a versatile intermediate for metal-catalysed cross-coupling and regioselective functionalisation in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical research. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade intermediate.

Cross-coupling building block
The 5-iodo substituent serves as a reactive handle for palladium- or copper-catalysed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira, Negishi and Buchwald-Hartwig amination, enabling carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation on the pyridine ring.
Pivalamide-protected aminopyridine intermediate
The pivaloyl (2,2-dimethylpropanoyl) group protects the 2-amino function and can act as a directing group for regioselective metalation; it can be removed by hydrolysis to reveal the free aminopyridine for further elaboration.
Pharmaceutical and medicinal-chemistry research
Substituted iodopyridines of this type are used as scaffolds in discovery chemistry to assemble more complex heterocyclic structures and analogue libraries. Specific therapeutic uses should be defined by the end user's own programme.
Heterocyclic synthesis and library design
As a defined C11 halogenated heterocyclic building block, it supports the construction of functionalised pyridine cores for agrochemical, materials and general fine-chemical synthesis.
