3,4-Difluorobenzyl alcohol (CAS 1867-02-9) is a fluorinated aromatic intermediate defined by its C7H6F2O formula. Produced via catalytic hydrogenation of 3,4-difluorobenzaldehyde or nucleophilic substitution, it serves as a critical building block for synthesizing complex pharmaceutical scaffolds.
Requires storage in sealed, dry containers away from oxidizers at temperatures below 25°C. Personnel must utilize chemical-resistant PPE to prevent skin contact and inhalation of vapors due to potential irritancy.
