3-Bromo-2-fluoropyridine is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with both bromine and fluorine atoms. The bromine atom is located at the 3-position, while the fluorine atom is at the 2-position of the pyridine ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. It has a moderate boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water due to the presence of halogen substituents, which can influence its polarity. 3-Bromo-2-fluoropyridine is of interest in medicinal chemistry and materials science, often serving as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the halogen substituents, which can affect nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
