2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde

Description:
2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde, with the CAS number 447-61-0, is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) attached to the benzene ring at the second position relative to the aldehyde functional group (-CHO). This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. It is known for its high reactivity due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the trifluoromethyl group, which can influence its chemical behavior in various reactions, such as electrophilic aromatic substitution. The presence of the aldehyde functional group makes it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Additionally, 2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
