2-(DIFLUOROMETHOXY)BENZALDEHYDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

2-(Difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde is an important raw material used as an intermediate in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyestuffs. It is also involved in the preparation of 4-(2-difluoromethoxyphenyl)- substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine 3,5-diesters.

Uses

2-(Difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde may be used as a starting reagent in the synthesis of the following compounds:

• 2-[2-(difluoromethoxy)benzylidene]methyl acetoacetate
• 3-(2-cyanoethyl) 5-(2-propoxyethyl) 4-[2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydro-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate
• 2-propoxyethyl 5-cyano-4-[2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-2-methyl-6-thioxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylate
• methyl 5-cyano-4-(2-difluoromethoxyphenyl)-2-methyl-6-thioxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylate

General Description

2-(Difluoromethoxy)benzaldehyde is an ortho-difluoromethoxy substituted benzaldehyde.
