2-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde

Description:
2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a benzaldehyde functional group, a chlorine atom, and a trifluoromethyl group attached to the benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It has a distinct aromatic odor and is known for its reactivity due to the presence of both electron-withdrawing groups (the chlorine and trifluoromethyl groups), which influence its chemical behavior. The trifluoromethyl group enhances the compound's lipophilicity and can affect its biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 2-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde may exhibit moderate to high toxicity, necessitating careful handling and storage. Its applications often involve its use as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of more complex molecules. As with many halogenated compounds, it is important to consider environmental and safety regulations when working with this substance.
