3,5-Difluorophenylacetonitrile (CAS 10429-67-5) is a key fluorinated intermediate with molecular formula C8H5F2N. Synthesized via nucleophilic substitution of 3,5-difluorobenzyl halides or cyanation of corresponding benzyl alcohols, it serves as a critical building block in pharmaceutical synthesis.
Store in sealed containers under inert atmosphere at temperatures below 25°C to prevent hydrolysis. Personnel must utilize appropriate PPE including respirators and chemical-resistant gloves due to potential toxicity and irritant properties.
