4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde

Description:
4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a chloro group and a trifluoromethyl group on a benzene ring. Its molecular formula is C8H4ClF3O, indicating that it contains eight carbon atoms, four hydrogen atoms, one chlorine atom, three fluorine atoms, and one oxygen atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature. It has a distinct aromatic odor, common to many aldehydes. The presence of the electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group significantly influences its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the chloro substituent can participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions. Due to its functional groups, 4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde may exhibit moderate toxicity and should be handled with care in a laboratory setting, following appropriate safety protocols.
