:

(Trifluoromethyl)cyclohexane

Description:
(Trifluoromethyl)cyclohexane, with the CAS number 401-75-2, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) attached to a cyclohexane ring. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a relatively low boiling point compared to many other organic solvents. Its molecular structure contributes to its unique chemical properties, including a high degree of hydrophobicity due to the electronegative fluorine atoms, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. The trifluoromethyl group is known for imparting significant stability and lipophilicity, making (trifluoromethyl)cyclohexane useful in various applications, including as a solvent or intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can enhance the compound's resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation. However, safety considerations are important, as fluorinated compounds can exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence. Proper handling and disposal methods should be employed to mitigate any potential risks associated with its use.
