5-(Trifluoromethyl)picolinaldehyde (CAS: 1004-28-6; Formula: C7H4F3NO) is a key heterocyclic intermediate synthesized via Vilsmeier-Haack formylation of 5-trifluoromethylpyridine. It serves as a critical building block for constructing complex nitrogen-containing scaffolds.
Store in sealed containers under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent oxidation. Handle with appropriate PPE due to skin irritation risks and potential toxicity upon inhalation or ingestion.
