CAS 62128-84-1

Hydrazine, [4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-

Description:

Hydrazine, [4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-, also known by its CAS number 62128-84-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydrazine functional group attached to a phenyl ring that is further substituted with a difluoromethoxy group. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with hydrazines, such as being a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in redox reactions, and can act as a reducing agent. The difluoromethoxy substituent introduces unique electronic and steric effects, potentially influencing the compound's solubility, stability, and reactivity. Hydrazine derivatives are often studied for their applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. However, due to the presence of the hydrazine moiety, this compound may also pose health risks, including toxicity and potential carcinogenicity, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures in laboratory and industrial settings.
