2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenemethanol

Description:

2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenemethanol is an organic compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes a bromine atom and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzene ring, along with a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH). This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It exhibits moderate solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxymethyl group, while the trifluoromethyl group contributes to its lipophilicity. The bromine atom can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making this compound useful in various synthetic applications. Additionally, the trifluoromethyl group often enhances the compound's biological activity and stability. Its CAS number, 497959-33-8, allows for easy identification in chemical databases. Safety data should be consulted, as halogenated compounds can pose health risks, and appropriate handling and storage conditions are necessary to ensure safety in laboratory settings.
