2-FLUORO-5-(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)PHENYL ISOCYANATE - Introduction
2-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl isocyanate is a chemical substance that has the following properties:
Appearance: 2-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl isocyanate is a colorless to pale yellow liquid.
Molecular formula: C8H4F4N2O
Molecular weight: 228.12g/mol
Boiling point: approximately 100-107°C
Density: 1.42g/cm³
Flash Point: 95°C
2-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl isocyanate is mainly used in organic synthesis, especially in the manufacture of pesticides, drugs and specialty chemicals. It can be used as a reagent for the synthesis of carbamate compounds. It is a useful intermediate for the synthesis of biologically active organic molecules.
The preparation method can be achieved by reacting p-difluorophenol with trifluoroacetate under alkaline conditions. The difluorophenol is first reacted with the trifluoroacetate to form the corresponding fluoride, which is then esterified with an isocyanate under basic conditions.
During the operation, you need to pay attention to the safety information of the 2-Fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl isocyanate. It is an organic compound, so it needs to be handled in the laboratory, following the relevant safe operating procedures. It is an irritating and highly toxic substance. Direct contact with skin and eyes should be avoided. Appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, protective glasses and laboratory coats should be worn. In addition, it should be operated under ventilated conditions to prevent its vapor accumulation. If accidentally ingested or inhaled, should promptly seek medical attention. In the process of storage and handling, it should be placed in isolation from other chemicals to avoid fire and high temperature.
