3-(4-Trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-propionaldehyde (CAS 1572-09-8) is a key intermediate with formula C10H9F3O. It is primarily synthesized via hydroformylation of 4-trifluoromethylstyrene or oxidation of corresponding alcohols, serving as a critical building block for pharmaceutical synthesis.
Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent polymerization. Use in fume hoods due to toxicity; wear PPE including gloves and goggles. Avoid contact with strong oxidizers.
