Ethyl 4,4-difluorovalerate

Description:

Ethyl 4,4-difluorovalerate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is formed from the reaction of 4,4-difluorovaleric acid and ethanol. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. The presence of two fluorine atoms on the carbon chain significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased lipophilicity and potential reactivity. Ethyl 4,4-difluorovalerate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. It is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data indicates that, like many fluorinated compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate environmental impact. Overall, its unique structure and properties make it a compound of interest in both industrial and research applications.
