2-Bromo-4-fluoro-5-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:
2-Bromo-4-fluoro-5-methylbenzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with a bromine atom at the second position, a fluorine atom at the fourth position, and a methyl group at the fifth position, along with an aldehyde functional group. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to light brown appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of halogen substituents (bromine and fluorine) can influence its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound may also exhibit interesting electronic properties due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the halogens, which can affect its reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
