4-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde（Cat No.:L027210）is a halogenated aromatic aldehyde that combines a chloro group and a trifluoromethoxy group attached to a benzene ring. This structure is instrumental in chemical synthesis, especially in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. The trifluoromethoxy group increases the electron-withdrawing capacity, enhancing the reactivity of the aldehyde group for nucleophilic addition reactions. Meanwhile, the chloro substituent allows for further functionalization through electrophilic substitution. This compound is frequently used as a building block for synthesizing advanced materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients with improved stability and activity.
