2,6-Difluorobenzaldehyde

Description:

2,6-Difluorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of two fluorine atoms located at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring, relative to the aldehyde functional group. This compound has a molecular formula of C7H4F2O and features a distinctive structure that influences its chemical properties and reactivity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its electrophilic character, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. 2,6-Difluorobenzaldehyde is known for its relatively low boiling point and moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Additionally, it exhibits reactivity typical of aldehydes, such as undergoing oxidation to form carboxylic acids and participating in condensation reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.

2.6-Difluorobenzaldehyde

CAS: 437-81-0

2.6-Difluorobenzaldehyde is an experimental drug that has been shown to have anti-angiogenic properties in animals and humans. It inhibits the angiogenic process by inhibiting the expression of pro-angiogenic growth factors such as VEGF, which are responsible for promoting tumor blood vessel formation. Additionally, 2.6-difluorobenzaldehyde has been shown to inhibit tumor cell proliferation and activate apoptosis in animal models. This molecule also exhibits a vibrational spectrum with a proton attached to it, which may be responsible for its antitumor activity.
