CAS 40017-76-3

2,6-Difluorobenzoylacetonitrile

Description:

2,6-Difluorobenzoylacetonitrile, with the CAS number 40017-76-3, is an organic compound characterized by its unique structure that includes a benzoyl group and a cyano group. This compound features two fluorine atoms positioned at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring, which significantly influences its chemical properties, including reactivity and polarity. It is typically a solid at room temperature and exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents. The presence of the cyano group contributes to its potential as a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the fluorine substituents can enhance the compound's stability and lipophilicity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Its synthesis often involves the reaction of appropriate precursors under controlled conditions to ensure the desired substitution pattern. As with many fluorinated compounds, safety precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity and environmental impact.
