2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol

Description:
2-Methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol, identified by its CAS number 934180-47-9, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of phenolic compounds. It features a phenolic hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring, which is further substituted with a methyl group (-CH3) and a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3). The presence of the trifluoromethyl group significantly influences its chemical properties, enhancing its lipophilicity and potentially affecting its reactivity and biological activity. This compound is typically characterized by its solid state at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. Its unique structure may impart specific characteristics such as increased stability and potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or materials science. Additionally, the trifluoromethyl group can enhance the compound's ability to interact with biological systems, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety and handling precautions should be observed due to the presence of fluorinated groups, which can pose environmental and health risks.
