2-(Difluoromethyl)benzaldehyde

Description:
2-(Difluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzaldehyde functional group with a difluoromethyl substituent at the second position of the benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring attached to a carbonyl group (–CHO) and a difluoromethyl group (–CF2H), which significantly influences its chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the difluoromethyl group, which can enhance the electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon. Additionally, 2-(Difluoromethyl)benzaldehyde may exhibit interesting properties in terms of solubility, volatility, and stability, making it relevant in various synthetic applications, including the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks and environmental hazards.
