Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure, featuring bromo at position 6, fluoro at position 2, and amino at position 3 on the pyridine ring, allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for creating analogs with enhanced binding affinity. Commonly employed in the preparation of agrochemicals and drug candidates targeting inflammatory diseases and cancer. The presence of bromo, fluoro, and amino groups enables cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki or Buchwald-Hartwig couplings) and further derivatization, supporting its role in building complex heterocyclic systems.
