Description:2,4,6-Trifluorobenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of three fluorine atoms attached to the benzene ring at the 2, 4, and 6 positions, along with a formyl group (-CHO) at the 1-position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. It is known for its reactivity due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the fluorine atoms, which can influence its chemical behavior, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of fluorine enhances its lipophilicity and can affect its biological activity. 2,4,6-Trifluorobenzaldehyde is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability and integrity.
