3-Fluoro-4-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:
3-Fluoro-4-methylbenzaldehyde, with the CAS number 177756-62-6, is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a methyl group on a benzene ring. The fluorine substituent is located at the meta position relative to the aldehyde functional group, while the methyl group is situated at the para position. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to light brown liquid form at room temperature and has a distinct aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the aldehyde functional group makes it reactive, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. Additionally, the fluorine atom can influence the compound's reactivity and polarity, potentially enhancing its utility in various chemical syntheses and applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
