1,1'-Biphenyl, 2-[(trifluoromethyl)thio]-

Description:

1,1'-Biphenyl, 2-[(trifluoromethyl)thio]- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. The compound features a trifluoromethylthio group (-SCF3) attached to one of the phenyl rings, imparting unique chemical properties. This substitution enhances the compound's lipophilicity and can influence its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. The trifluoromethyl group is known for its electron-withdrawing properties, which can affect the acidity and nucleophilicity of the compound. 1,1'-Biphenyl, 2-[(trifluoromethyl)thio]- is typically used in research and industrial applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis and in the development of materials with specific electronic or optical properties. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as compounds with trifluoromethyl groups can exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence.
