ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butynoate

Description:
Ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butynoate is an organic compound characterized by its unique trifluoromethyl and alkyne functional groups. It features a butynoate structure, which includes a terminal alkyne and an ester functional group, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The presence of three fluorine atoms on the carbon adjacent to the carbonyl enhances the compound's electrophilicity, making it a valuable intermediate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and coupling reactions. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a distinctive odor, and it is soluble in organic solvents. Its trifluoromethyl group imparts unique physical and chemical properties, such as increased lipophilicity and altered boiling and melting points compared to non-fluorinated analogs. Ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butynoate is of interest in medicinal chemistry and materials science due to its potential as a building block for more complex fluorinated compounds. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
