2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzonitrile; CAS No.: 1214334-83-4; 2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzonitrile. PROPERTIES: This bromo-trifluoromethoxy-substituted nitrile features molecular formula C?H?BrF?NO with molecular weight 247.05 g/mol. Exists as a liquid. Soluble in polar aprotic solvents like DMF and DMSO. Boiling point approximately 130-135 C. Exhibits IR absorption for nitrile group. Thermogravimetric analysis shows decomposition above 180 C under nitrogen. Store at 2-8 C in sealed containers. May cause severe skin burns and eye damage. APPLICATIONS: As a brominated nitrile, 2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzonitrile is used in anti-inflammatory drug synthesis. The nitrile group hydrolyzes to carboxylic acid, forming amide functionality. Also used in fluorescent probe synthesis, enabling conjugation via click chemistry. In materials science, it enhances thermal stability in polyacrylonitrile fibers due to trifluoromethoxy substituents.
