N-(6-Amino-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(6-Amino-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 132784-74-8; C10H15N3O; molar mass 193.25 g/mol) is a heterocyclic building block belonging to the aminopyridine pivalamide family. It pairs a 2,6-disubstituted pyridine core bearing a free amino group with a pivaloyl (2,2-dimethylpropionyl) amide, giving a stable, directing handle widely used in chemical synthesis. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade intermediate for pharmaceutical and fine-chemical discovery programmes worldwide.

Heterocyclic building block
Serves as a functionalised pyridine scaffold in multi-step synthesis. The combination of a free amino group and a pivalamide on adjacent ring positions provides distinct, selectively addressable reactive sites for further elaboration.
Pharmaceutical intermediate
Used in medicinal-chemistry and drug-discovery programmes where substituted 2-aminopyridines are common motifs. It is offered for research and development use, not as a finished active pharmaceutical ingredient.
Amino-directed functionalisation
The pivaloyl amide is a well-established protecting and directing group in pyridine chemistry, supporting regioselective metalation and cross-coupling. This makes the compound a convenient handle for building more complex nitrogen heterocycles.
Reference and laboratory reagent
Suitable as a characterised reagent for method development, analytical reference work and exploratory synthesis in research laboratories.
