3-fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride

Description:
3-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a benzoyl chloride functional group, which consists of a benzene ring substituted with a fluorine atom at the meta position and a trifluoromethyl group at the para position relative to the carbonyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the acyl chloride functional group, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The trifluoromethyl group contributes to its lipophilicity and can influence the compound's biological activity. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms often enhances the stability and metabolic resistance of the compound. As with many acyl chlorides, it is important to handle this substance with care due to its potential to react violently with water, releasing hydrochloric acid and forming the corresponding carboxylic acid.
