2-Methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (CAS: 176890-47-6; Formula: C9H6F3NO) is a key fluorinated intermediate synthesized via nucleophilic aromatic substitution or directed lithiation. It serves as a critical building block in modern pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below 25°C. Handle with appropriate PPE to avoid skin contact and inhalation of dust, as nitriles may release toxic cyanide upon degradation.
