Description:3,4-Difluorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of two fluorine atoms positioned at the 3 and 4 positions on a benzene ring, with an aldehyde functional group (-CHO) attached. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is known for its reactivity due to the aldehyde group, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic addition and condensation reactions. The presence of fluorine atoms influences its electronic properties, making it more electrophilic compared to non-fluorinated analogs. 3,4-Difluorobenzaldehyde is used in organic synthesis and can serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Additionally, it exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents, while its stability can be affected by moisture and light. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
