2,6-Difluorobenzyl chloride

Description:

2,6-Difluorobenzyl chloride is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzene ring substituted with two fluorine atoms at the 2 and 6 positions and a chlorine atom at the benzyl position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the chlorine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The fluorine substituents enhance the compound's lipophilicity and influence its electronic properties, making it of interest in various chemical syntheses and applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. 2,6-Difluorobenzyl chloride is generally 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 ingested, and it can cause skin and eye irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability.

2,6-Difluorobenzyl chloride is a dihedral molecule that can be synthesized from an amide and a chlorinating agent. It is used in the chromatographic method to separate β-unsaturated ketones from their corresponding acid chloride. The 2,6-difluorobenzyl chloride was prepared by condensation of the corresponding acid chloride with phenol in an organic solvent. The validation of this reaction system was done using a chromatographic method on β-unsaturated ketones and chloride gas. The hydrogen chloride gas was bubbled through an ice water bath, generating chlorine gas which was then passed over the sample. The resulting 2,6-difluorobenzyl chloride was identified by its functional groups
