2,6-Dibromo-3-iodopyridine is a reagent that can be used in the synthesis of natural products. It also acts as a cross-coupling agent for the formation of amides or oxazolines. This compound has been shown to react with valine and form macrocyclization via intramolecular cross-coupling reactions. The macrocyclization reaction forms 2-iodothiazole, which is then oxidized to give tert-butyl 2,6-dibromo-3-iodopyridine.
