(3-Bromopyridin-4-yl)methanol is the PubChem Title for CID 46840038 and CAS 146679-66-5. Its verified formula is C6H6BrNO. PubChem represents the bonding as SMILES C1=CN=CC(=C1CO)Br and provides InChIKey LQBUZBOVEZBDEB-UHFFFAOYSA-N. “3-Bromopyridine-4-methanol” appears in the official synonyms, confirming the earlier catalog wording.
The six-membered aromatic ring contains five carbons and one nitrogen. Bromine is bonded at pyridine position 3, while the carbon of the methanol substituent attaches at position 4. That side chain supplies the sixth carbon and the only oxygen in C6H6BrNO. The official graph is a single neutral component without a counterion, and it includes no stereochemical encoding. The methanol oxygen is terminal and is not part of the aromatic ring. Formula alone cannot distinguish this arrangement from other bromopyridyl methanols, so the adjacent 3-bromo and 4-hydroxymethyl positions remain essential identity details.
To prepare an inquiry, reference CAS 146679-66-5 and the preferred PubChem Title. Add the quantity under review, contact information, and any question concerning identity documents. CID 46840038 or InChIKey LQBUZBOVEZBDEB-UHFFFAOYSA-N can be supplied when the request begins from a database structure. Rlavie can compare those values with this exact record before associating the message. Keeping both ring positions visible prevents confusion with a bromine or methanol group attached elsewhere on pyridine.
