Application
4-Chloro-5-iodo-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (CAS 123148-78-7) is a highly functionalized heterocyclic building block bearing two orthogonal halogen leaving groups (chlorine at position 4, iodine at position 5) on the pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine core. This unique dihalogenated scaffold enables sequential, site-selective cross-coupling reactions, allowing the introduction of diverse aryl, heteroaryl, or alkyl substituents via Suzuki-Miyaura, Buchwald-Hartwig, Sonogashira, or Ullmann couplings. The chlorine at C4 is more reactive toward nucleophilic aromatic substitution, while the iodine at C5 is preferentially engaged in palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings. As a purine bioisostere, this compound is extensively used in medicinal chemistry for the synthesis of highly selective kinase inhibitors targeting cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases (e.g., JAK, BTK, CDK, and TBK1). Its orthogonal reactivity pattern enables the construction of complex, drug-like libraries and facilitates rapid structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. High purity ensures reproducible results in high-throughput screening and scalable pharmaceutical synthesis.
