3-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzyl alcohol

Description:
3-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzyl alcohol, with the CAS number 50823-90-0, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzyl alcohol moiety substituted with a trifluoromethoxy group at the meta position. This compound features a benzene ring, which is a stable aromatic structure, and a hydroxyl (-OH) group that contributes to its classification as an alcohol. The trifluoromethoxy group (-O-CF3) is notable for its strong electron-withdrawing properties, which can significantly influence the compound's reactivity and solubility. This substitution can enhance the compound's lipophilicity and may affect its interactions in biological systems. 3-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzyl alcohol is typically used in various chemical syntheses and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its unique properties make it of interest in research and development, particularly in fields exploring fluorinated compounds and their applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
