5-Methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)aniline

Description:
5-Methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)aniline is an organic compound characterized by its aniline structure, which features an amino group (-NH2) attached to a benzene ring. The presence of a methyl group at the 5-position and a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) at the 2-position of the aromatic ring significantly influences its chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and is generally insoluble in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the trifluoromethyl group. The trifluoromethyl substituent enhances the compound's lipophilicity and can affect its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of the amino group allows for potential interactions in biological systems, which may be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
