1-(chloromethyl)-4-fluoronaphthalene

Description:

1-(Chloromethyl)-4-fluoronaphthalene is an organic compound characterized by its naphthalene backbone, which consists of two fused aromatic rings. The presence of a chloromethyl group (-CH2Cl) at the first position and a fluorine atom at the fourth position of the naphthalene structure imparts unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic substitution reactions due to the electron-withdrawing effects of the fluorine atom and the leaving group ability of the chloromethyl group. The compound is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its handling requires caution due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with halogenated compounds. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation.

CAS: 3094-25-5

1-(Chloromethyl)-4-fluoronaphthalene is a halogenated, organic compound with two different forms, a trans and cis form. The trans form is the more stable, inactive form. The cis form is more reactive and can be converted to the trans form by heating or light. It has been studied for use in polymer synthesis and as an insecticide. 1-(Chloromethyl)-4-fluoronaphthalene has not been observed in the gas phase because it does not have any dipole moments in this state. However, it does show infrared and vibrational spectra that are explainable when it is in the gaseous phase. 1-(Chloromethyl)-4-fluoronaphthalene also emits Raman spectra when it is heated or exposed to light. These spectra help to characterize the molecule quantitatively by observing its transitions at different frequencies.
