Description:2-Fluoro-4-methylbenzonitrile, with the CAS number 85070-67-3, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a nitrile group attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular structure consists of a benzene ring substituted at the 2-position with a fluorine atom and at the 4-position with a methyl group, along with a cyano group (-C≡N) at the 1-position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its moderate polarity due to the presence of the electronegative fluorine and the nitrile group, which can influence its reactivity and solubility in various solvents. 2-Fluoro-4-methylbenzonitrile is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks upon exposure.
