N-(6-Iodo-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(6-Iodo-pyridin-2-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 851102-44-8; C10H13IN2O; molar mass 304.13 g/mol) is a halogenated pyridine building block in which a 6-iodopyridin-2-amine carries a pivaloyl (2,2-dimethylpropionamide) group on nitrogen. The reactive carbon-iodine bond and the protected amino function make it a versatile intermediate for transition-metal cross-coupling and directed functionalisation in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical synthesis. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it as a research-grade synthesis reagent for laboratory and process development use.

Cross-coupling intermediate
The aryl-iodide site is well suited to palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura, Negishi, Stille and Sonogashira, enabling carbon-carbon bond formation to extend the pyridine scaffold. This makes the compound a convenient handle for building more complex heteroaromatic targets.
Pharmaceutical building block
As a substituted 2-aminopyridine derivative, it serves as a heterocyclic building block in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates and candidate molecules. The pivalamide-protected amine allows the amino group to be revealed or further elaborated at a later stage.
Directed C-H functionalisation
The pivaloyl amide can act as a directing group in metalation and transition-metal-catalysed C-H functionalisation chemistry, supporting regioselective introduction of substituents on the pyridine ring during methodology and route development.
Halogenated heterocycle for discovery chemistry
Within medicinal and agrochemical discovery programmes, this iodopyridine is used to assemble libraries and analogues where a pyridine core and a single, selectively reactive halogen are required.
Reference and method development
It is employed as a defined small-molecule reagent for synthetic methodology studies and analytical method development in research laboratories.
