3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate

Description:
3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) attached to a phenyl ring, which is further esterified with an acetate group (-OCOCH3). This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is known for its relatively low volatility and moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The trifluoromethyl group imparts unique electronic properties, enhancing the compound's stability and influencing its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the development of pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can enhance lipophilicity, potentially affecting biological interactions. Safety data indicates that, like many fluorinated compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may pose environmental and health risks if not managed properly.
