2,2,2-trifluoroethyl N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)carbamate

2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)carbamate is an organic compound with the molecular formula C11H12F3NO2 and a molecular weight of 247.21 g/mol. It incorporates a trifluoroethyl ester group linked via a carbamate to a 3,4-dimethylphenyl ring. This structure makes it a versatile building block in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of more complex molecules where the trifluoroethyl group can serve as a protecting group or a source of trifluoromethyl functionality, and the carbamate linkage can be further modified. It is suitable for use in various research applications, including medicinal chemistry, agrochemical development, and materials science.

• Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, eye protection, and a lab coat. Use in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood to avoid inhalation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Store in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive safety information before handling.
