2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-(5-methyl-2-thienyl)ethanone

Description:

2,2,2-Trifluoro-1-(5-methyl-2-thienyl)ethanone, with the CAS number 18087-61-1, is an organic compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes a trifluoroacetyl group and a thienyl moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its strong electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group, which significantly influences its reactivity and stability. The presence of the thienyl ring contributes to its aromatic properties, enhancing its potential applications in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals. The compound is generally soluble in organic solvents, such as dichloromethane and acetone, but may have limited solubility in water. Due to the presence of fluorine atoms, it may exhibit unique physical and chemical properties, including increased lipophilicity and altered boiling and melting points compared to non-fluorinated analogs. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks, including irritation or toxicity.
