3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzenemethanol

Description:

3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzenemethanol, also known as 3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) attached to a benzene ring, which is further connected to a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH). This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its unique properties, including high lipophilicity due to the trifluoromethyl group, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with biological systems. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group allows for potential hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. 3-(Trifluoromethyl)benzenemethanol is utilized in various chemical syntheses and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its trifluoromethyl group can also impart distinctive electronic properties, making it a subject of interest in materials science and medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as with many fluorinated organic substances.
