2-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde

Description:
2-Fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzene ring. The molecular structure features a benzaldehyde functional group, which includes a carbonyl (C=O) adjacent to a phenyl ring. The presence of the fluorine and trifluoromethyl groups significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased electronegativity and potential reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. This compound is typically colorless to pale yellow and may exhibit a distinct odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The trifluoromethyl group enhances the compound's lipophilicity and may impart unique biological activities, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Additionally, its reactivity can be exploited in various synthetic applications, including the development of more complex fluorinated compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks.
