1,3-Difluoro-2-methylbenzene

Description:

1,3-Difluoro-2-methylbenzene, also known as m-difluorotoluene, is an aromatic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with two fluorine atoms and one methyl group. The fluorine atoms are positioned at the 1 and 3 positions relative to the methyl group at the 2 position, resulting in a meta-substituted structure. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is known for its relatively low boiling point and moderate solubility in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical applications. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its chemical stability and can influence its reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fluorinated compounds. Additionally, 1,3-difluoro-2-methylbenzene exhibits properties such as moderate toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Its unique structure and properties make it an interesting subject of study in both organic chemistry and materials science.

2,6-Difluorotoluene

CAS: 443-84-5

2,6-Difluorotoluene is a colorless liquid with a pleasant odor and is used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. It reacts with anhydrous sodium to produce 2,6-difluoroaniline at a rate that is enhanced by metal ions or chloride. The reaction system can be analyzed by vibrational spectroscopy and dihedral angles. The infrared spectrum for 2,6-difluorotoluene shows amide bonding, which has been shown to be low energy. This compound reacts rapidly with chlorine gas to form hydrogen chloride and difluorotoluene. Reaction time can be slowed by adding dipole-inhibiting groups at the ortho position on the phenyl ring.
