CAS 696-01-5

Benzene, 2-fluoro-1,4-dimethyl-

Description:

Benzene, 2-fluoro-1,4-dimethyl- (CAS 696-01-5) is an aromatic hydrocarbon characterized by a benzene ring substituted with two methyl groups and a fluorine atom. The presence of the fluorine atom at the 2-position and the methyl groups at the 1 and 4 positions contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a sweet odor, and it is known for its relatively low solubility in water but good solubility in organic solvents. Its molecular structure allows for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution, which is common in aromatic compounds. The fluorine substituent can influence the reactivity and polarity of the molecule, making it of interest in various chemical syntheses and applications. Additionally, due to the presence of both methyl and fluorine groups, this compound may exhibit interesting physical properties, such as changes in boiling and melting points compared to unsubstituted benzene. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks.
