4-(Trifluoromethylthio)benzyl chloride

Description:
4-(Trifluoromethylthio)benzyl chloride, with the CAS number 74483-45-7, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzyl chloride moiety substituted with a trifluoromethylthio group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its strong odor. The trifluoromethylthio group imparts unique electronic and steric properties, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is generally soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The compound is reactive, particularly due to the presence of the chlorine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Proper storage in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials, is essential to maintain its stability and prevent degradation.
