2,3,5-trifluorobenzyl alcohol

Description:
2,3,5-Trifluorobenzyl alcohol is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzyl alcohol structure with three fluorine atoms substituted at the 2, 3, and 5 positions of the benzene ring. This substitution pattern significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased polarity and potential reactivity due to the electronegative fluorine atoms. The compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular structure allows for hydrogen bonding due to the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which can enhance its solubility in polar solvents. 2,3,5-Trifluorobenzyl alcohol may be utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of fluorine can impart unique characteristics, such as increased stability and altered biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards associated with this compound.
