2,4-Difluoro-3-methylpyridine

Description:

2,4-Difluoro-3-methylpyridine is a heterocyclic organic compound characterized by a pyridine ring substituted with two fluorine atoms and a methyl group. The presence of fluorine atoms at the 2 and 4 positions of the pyridine ring significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased electronegativity and potential reactivity. The methyl group at the 3 position contributes to the compound's overall hydrophobic character. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions. 2,4-Difluoro-3-methylpyridine is of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its potential as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as fluorinated compounds can pose unique health and environmental risks.
