Description:4-Fluoro-1,3-benzenediol, also known as 4-fluororesorcinol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and two hydroxyl groups (-OH) on a benzene ring. The fluorine substituent is located at the para position relative to one of the hydroxyl groups, which are situated at the meta positions. This compound typically appears as a solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of hydroxyl groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. Its chemical structure contributes to its potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and materials science. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence the compound's reactivity and biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Additionally, 4-fluoro-1,3-benzenediol may exhibit properties such as antioxidant activity, which can be explored in various chemical and biological contexts. As with many chemical substances, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards.
