title: 3-Amino-5-bromo-2-iodo-pyridine.
abstract: The reaction of 3-amino-5-bromo-pyridine with N-iodo-succinimide in the presence of acetic acid produces the title compound, C(5)H(4)BrIN, with an iodo substituent in position 2 of the pyridine ring. The crystal structure features rather weak inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds linking the mol-ecules into chains along the z axis of the crystal.
