2-(2,3,6-trifluorophenoxy)ethanol

Description:
2-(2,3,6-Trifluorophenoxy)ethanol is an organic compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes a trifluorinated phenyl group and an ethanol moiety. The presence of three fluorine atoms on the phenyl ring significantly influences its chemical properties, enhancing its lipophilicity and potentially altering its reactivity compared to non-fluorinated analogs. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the hydroxyl group, while the trifluorophenyl group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics. The compound may be used in various applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, owing to its unique electronic and steric properties. Additionally, its fluorinated nature may impart specific biological activities, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as fluorinated compounds can exhibit unique toxicological profiles.
