This compound is a high-purity brominated pyrimidine derivative primarily used as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the synthesis of antiviral and anticancer agents. Its reactive bromomethyl group makes it ideal for cross-coupling reactions and functionalization in organic chemistry. It is widely employed in research laboratories and industrial settings for drug discovery and development.
Safety Precautions: Wear PPE (gloves, goggles, lab coat). Avoid inhalation or direct contact. Use in a well-ventilated fume hood.
Solubility: Soluble in DMSO, ethanol, and dimethylformamide (DMF).
Handling: Stabilize at room temperature before use. For prolonged storage, keep under inert gas (e.g., nitrogen).
Reaction Conditions: Typical use concentration: 0.1-1.0 mM. Optimal reaction temperature: 20-40°C.
In a 2023 study, CAS 2908-71-6 was used to synthesize a novel nucleoside analog for hepatitis B treatment. The bromomethyl group facilitated selective alkylation at the pyrimidine N1 position, achieving a 78% yield under mild conditions (pH 7.4, 25°C).
Researchers utilized this compound to create a potent kinase inhibitor for non-small cell lung cancer. The bromine atom enabled efficient Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with boronic acid partners, enhancing binding affinity by 3x compared to chloro analogs.
