3-Bromopyridine is an aryl bromide and isomer of bromopyridine with the formula C5H4BrN. It is a colorless liquid that is mainly used as a building block in organic synthesis.{{cite journal |doi=10.15227/orgsyn.081.0089|title=Synthesis of 3-Pyridylboronic Acid and ITS Pinacol Ester.

It participates as a substrate in many reactions associated with aryl halides, e.g., the Heck reaction{{cite journal |doi=10.1021/ar50136a006|title=Palladium-catalyzed reactions of organic halides with olefins|year=1979|last1=Heck|first1=Richard F.|journal=Accounts of Chemical Research|volume=12|issue=4|pages=146–151}} and Buchwald–Hartwig amination.{{cite journal |doi=10.1021/jo0504464|title=Amino Acid Promoted CuI-Catalyzed C−N Bond Formation between Aryl Halides and Amines or N-Containing Heterocycles|year=2005|last1=Zhang|first1=Hui|last2=Cai|first2=Qian|last3=Ma|first3=Dawei|journal=The Journal of Organic Chemistry|volume=70|issue=13|pages=5164–5173|pmid=15960520}}
