CAS 161361-16-6: (2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-methylethyl)benzene
Description:(2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-methylethyl)benzene, also known by its CAS number 161361-16-6, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with a trifluoromethyl group and a methylethyl group. This compound features a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3), which significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased lipophilicity and altered reactivity compared to non-fluorinated analogs. The presence of fluorine atoms typically enhances the compound's stability and resistance to degradation. The methylethyl group contributes to the overall hydrophobic character of the molecule. In terms of physical properties, (2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-methylethyl)benzene is expected to be a colorless liquid at room temperature, with a relatively low boiling point due to its molecular structure. Its applications may include use as a solvent, in pharmaceuticals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. However, specific safety and handling guidelines should be followed due to the potential toxicity associated with fluorinated compounds.
