Methane, difluoromethoxy-

Description:
Methane, difluoromethoxy- (CAS 359-15-9) is a chemical compound characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) and two fluorine atoms attached to a methane backbone. This compound is part of the class of organofluorine compounds, which are known for their unique properties due to the presence of fluorine. The difluoromethoxy group contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Methane, difluoromethoxy- is typically a colorless gas or liquid at room temperature and exhibits low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular structure influences its boiling and melting points, which are generally lower than those of non-fluorinated analogs. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can enhance the stability and lipophilicity of the compound, making it useful in specific chemical syntheses and applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as organofluorine compounds can exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence.
