3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:
3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of two fluorine atoms and a methyl group on a benzene ring, along with an aldehyde functional group. The molecular structure features a benzene ring substituted at the 3 and 4 positions with fluorine atoms and at the 5 position with a methyl group, which influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It exhibits a distinct aromatic odor, common to many aldehydes. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various synthetic applications, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Additionally, the compound's polarity and potential for hydrogen bonding can affect its solubility in organic solvents. Safety data should be consulted, as aldehydes can be irritants and may pose health risks upon exposure. Overall, 3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzaldehyde is a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis.
