6-Cyano-3-chloropyridine is a pyridine compound that is functionalized with a chloride at the 3-position and a cyano group at the 6-position. 6-Cyano-3-chloropyridine is potentially useful as a building block for synthesis, where the chloride group may be employed as a coupling site for cross-coupling protocols, and the cyano group may also be used as a site for elaboration.
