2,6-дибромпиридина

Химические свойства

White to light yellow crystalline powder

Использование

2,6-Dibromopyridine is used as a tridentate chelating ligand and in the formation of macrocycles containing the terpyridine moiety. It is also used to produce 6-bromo-2-methoxypyridine.

прикладной

2,6-Dibromopyridine is an important organic chemical reagent with a wide range of uses:
(1) Spectroscopic studies: There is a satisfactory correlation between the normal Raman spectra of 2,6-dibromopyridine in aqueous solution and the surface enhanced Raman (SER) spectra in silver-pure sols. In the SER spectra, the compounds are notable for the stretching of the vibrational modes of (py)CBr and (CC,CN)(py) in 2,6-dibromopyridine to give enhanced vibrational intensities at 1175 and 1369 cm-1 , respectively^[1].
(2) Reaction reagent: Friedel–Crafts-type acylation of alkenes with acyl chlorides has been successfully conducted with a wide substrate scope by the combined use of AlCl3 and 2,6-dibromopyridine. Trisubstituted alkenes afford allylketones or vinylketones depending on the presence or absence of hydrogen atom(s) at the β-position to the acylation site, while monosubstituted alkenes exclusively afford vinylketones^[2]. In addition, 2,6-Dibromopyridine can be brominated to form 2,4,6-tribromopyridine by reacting with a mixture of bromine at 450~ 550 °C^[3]. It can also be lithiated with butyl lithium for the synthesis of L-739,010^[4].
(3) A selective palladium-catalysed arylation of 2,6-dibromopyridine has been developed by employing N-heterocyclic carbene ligands. Selective mono-arylation was performed in water/acetonitrile solvent system at ambient temperature with catalyst loading of 0.1 mol%. This reaction was also found to proceed smoothly in water although at a slightly elevated temperature of 80 °C. 2,6-Disubstituted and diversely substituted 2,6-pyridines were also obtained in high yields which will be of importance to organic and medicinal chemists^[5].

Методы очистки

Purify 2,6-dibromopyridine by steam distillation, then recrystallise it twice from EtOH. It does not form an HgCl2 salt. [den Hertog & Wibaut Recl Trav Chim Pays Bas 51 381 1932, Beilstein 20/5 V 435.]
