1. Product Overview
N-(5-Bromopyridin-2-yl)methanesulfonamide (CAS No. 89466-22-8) is a high-quality brominated pyridine sulfonamide derivative, supplied with a minimum purity of 95%. This white to off-white crystalline solid is a versatile building block widely used in pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis, medicinal chemistry research, and advanced organic synthesis. With its unique combination of a reactive bromine atom at the C5 position and a methanesulfonamide group at the C2 position, it offers excellent utility in cross-coupling reactions and as a precursor for biologically active compounds.
2. Key Features and Advantages
• High Purity Guaranteed — Minimum 95% purity (HPLC verified), ensuring reliable and reproducible results in sensitive applications.
• Excellent Reactivity — The C5 bromine atom serves as an ideal handle for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (Suzuki, Sonogashira, Buchwald-Hartwig), enabling efficient structural diversification.
• Versatile Synthetic Intermediate — The methanesulfonamide moiety provides a hydrogen-bonding capable functional group, valuable for target binding in drug discovery programs.
• Stable Solid Form — White to off-white solid with good shelf stability under recommended storage conditions, minimizing decomposition and ensuring long-term usability.
• Strict Quality Control — Each batch is tested by HPLC, NMR, and other analytical methods to ensure consistency and compliance with international standards.
3. Main Applications
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate — Serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in the development of TRPV1 antagonists and other therapeutic agents targeting specific biological pathways.
• Medicinal Chemistry Research — Used as a scaffold for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and fragment-based drug discovery, enabling researchers to explore chemical space around the bromopyridine core.
• Organic Synthesis — Acts as a versatile building block for constructing complex heterocyclic molecules through palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions and other transformations.
• Materials Science — The pyridine nitrogen can coordinate with metal ions, making it a potential organic linker for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and coordination polymers with applications in gas storage, catalysis, and sensing.
