Chemical Structure

4-(3-Fluoro-Benzyloxy)-Benzaldehyde CAS 66742-57-2 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 4-(3-Fluoro-Benzyloxy)-Benzaldehyde (C14H11FO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 230.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
