2-Chloro-3,4-difluorophenol

Description:
2-Chloro-3,4-difluorophenol is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a phenolic hydroxyl group (-OH) and halogen substituents on the aromatic ring. Specifically, it features a chlorine atom at the second position and two fluorine atoms at the third and fourth positions of the phenol ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid or liquid, depending on its state and purity. It exhibits properties common to halogenated phenols, such as potential antimicrobial activity and reactivity in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and electrophilic aromatic substitutions. The presence of electronegative halogens influences its chemical behavior, making it a useful intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. Additionally, its solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water can affect its applications and environmental behavior. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as halogenated phenols can be toxic and pose environmental hazards.
