2-(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)-PYRIDINE-4-CARBOXALDEHYDE

Description:
2-(Trifluoromethyl)-pyridine-4-carboxaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its pyridine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The presence of a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) at the 2-position significantly influences its chemical properties, enhancing its electron-withdrawing characteristics and making it a useful building block in various synthetic applications. The aldehyde functional group (-CHO) at the 4-position contributes to its reactivity, allowing for further derivatization and reactions typical of aldehydes, such as condensation and nucleophilic addition. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state at room temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions. Due to its unique structure, it finds applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science, particularly in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as the trifluoromethyl group can impart toxicity and environmental concerns.
