Description
3-[2,6-Difluoro-4-[4-(4-propylcyclohexyl)cyclohexyl]phenoxy]propyl prop-2-enoate (CAS No. 255386-69-7) is a high-purity specialty chemical with the molecular formula C27H38F2O3. This advanced organic compound features a bifunctional structure combining a difluorophenoxy group with an acrylate moiety, linked via a propyl spacer to a bicyclohexyl core. The trans,trans configuration of the bicyclohexyl system ensures optimal molecular packing and stability. With a molecular weight of 448.59 g/mol, this material is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline solid with >98% purity (HPLC). It is soluble in common organic solvents such as THF, DCM, and DMF but insoluble in water. Store under inert atmosphere at -20°C to prevent polymerization of the acrylate group. Ideal for advanced material science research, liquid crystal development, and photopolymer applications.
