6-Fluoro-4-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline

6-Fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4-ol is an intramolecular quinoline that is synthesized by acetonitrile and trimethylsilylacetamide. This compound has a molecular weight of 291.33, a proton affinity of -0.37, and a hydrogen bond acceptor count of 2. The 6-fluoro group in the molecule forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the 4-OH group at position 2, which stabilizes the quinoline ring. The intramolecular hydrogen bond is also stabilized by the presence of the methyl group at position 6, which acts as a hydrogen bond donor to form a dimer. This compound has been found to have solvates with water or methanol and can exist as either cations or anions in solution depending on pH. The crystal structure of this compound was determined using X-ray diffraction analysis to be mon
