2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzenemethanol

Description:

2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzenemethanol, with the CAS number 56456-50-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with both a chlorine atom and a fluorine atom, as well as a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH). This compound typically exhibits a polar nature due to the hydroxymethyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility in polar solvents. The presence of the chlorine and fluorine substituents can affect the compound's reactivity and stability, often making it more electrophilic. It may also exhibit unique physical properties, such as a specific melting and boiling point, which are influenced by the molecular structure and intermolecular interactions. Additionally, 2-chloro-6-fluorobenzenemethanol may have applications in pharmaceuticals or as an intermediate in organic synthesis, owing to its functional groups that can participate in further chemical reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards associated with this compound.
