• Synonyms: 1,3-Difluoro-2-methylbenzene, 2,6-Difluoro(methyl)benzene, 2,6-Difluorobenzene, Benzene, 1,3-difluoro-2-methyl-, Toluene, 2,6-difluoro-

Description

2,6-Difluorotoluene is a colorless liquid with a pleasant odor and is used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. It reacts with anhydrous sodium to produce 2,6-difluoroaniline at a rate that is enhanced by metal ions or chloride. The reaction system can be analyzed by vibrational spectroscopy and dihedral angles. The infrared spectrum for 2,6-difluorotoluene shows amide bonding, which has been shown to be low energy. This compound reacts rapidly with chlorine gas to form hydrogen chloride and difluorotoluene. Reaction time can be slowed by adding dipole-inhibiting groups at the ortho position on the phenyl ring.
