1-(Pentafluorophenyl)ethanol

Description:
1-(Pentafluorophenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 830-50-2, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a pentafluorophenyl group attached to an ethanol moiety. This compound features a phenolic structure where five fluorine atoms are substituted on the aromatic ring, significantly influencing its chemical properties. The presence of these electronegative fluorine atoms enhances the compound's polarity and reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals. 1-(Pentafluorophenyl)ethanol is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a relatively high boiling point due to the strong C-F bonds. It is soluble in polar organic solvents, which is attributed to its hydroxyl group, while its fluorinated aromatic ring contributes to its unique electronic characteristics. This compound is often utilized in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and as a reagent in the synthesis of more complex fluorinated compounds. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks due to its fluorinated nature.
