2,6-Difluorobenzenethiol, also known by its CAS number 172366-44-8, is an organofluorine compound characterized by the presence of a thiol (-SH) group attached to a benzene ring that has two fluorine substituents at the 2 and 6 positions. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a distinct odor associated with thiols. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its chemical stability and can influence its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis and in the development of pharmaceuticals. The thiol group contributes to its potential as a reducing agent and its ability to form disulfide bonds. Additionally, 2,6-difluorobenzenethiol may exhibit unique physical properties such as solubility in organic solvents and varying boiling and melting points depending on the specific molecular interactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as thiols can be toxic and have strong odors.
