4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride

Description:
4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride, with the CAS number 1735-55-3, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a benzoyl chloride functional group and a trifluoromethyl substituent. This compound features a chlorine atom and a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) attached to the benzene ring, which significantly influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. The presence of the trifluoromethyl group enhances its lipophilicity and can impart unique electronic properties, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. As a reactive acyl chloride, it can readily participate in acylation reactions, forming amides or esters upon reaction with nucleophiles. However, it is also important to handle this compound with care due to its potential reactivity and toxicity, particularly in the presence of moisture, which can lead to the release of hydrochloric acid.
