N-(5-Iodo-pyridin-3-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide
N-(5-Iodo-pyridin-3-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-propionamide (CAS 873302-38-6; C10H13IN2O; molar mass 304.13 g/mol) is a halogenated pyridine building block. It pairs a reactive 3-iodopyridine site with a robust pivaloyl (2,2-dimethylpropionamide) group on the adjacent amine. The aryl iodide is a versatile handle for transition-metal cross-coupling, making this a useful intermediate in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical synthesis. Tech Serve Solutions supplies it worldwide as a research-grade heterocyclic building block.

Cross-coupling building block
The aryl iodide serves as a reactive site for palladium- and nickel-catalysed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira, Negishi and Stille couplings, allowing controlled carbon-carbon bond formation on the pyridine ring.
Pharmaceutical intermediate
As a functionalised pyridine scaffold, it is used in medicinal-chemistry programmes and discovery synthesis to elaborate substituted aminopyridine cores toward drug candidates and lead compounds.
Buchwald-Hartwig amination substrate
The carbon-iodine bond is well suited to palladium-catalysed C-N coupling, enabling the introduction of amine substituents and the construction of more complex nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
Protected aminopyridine handle
The 2,2-dimethylpropionamide (pivalamide) acts as a stable protecting and directing group for the pyridin-3-amine, supporting selective downstream functionalisation that can later be revealed by amide hydrolysis.
Laboratory research reagent
It is employed as a reference building block in methodology development and route-scouting work where a defined iodo-substituted pyridine is required.
