It features a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring, which is further substituted at the 2-position with a chlorine atom and at the 4-position with a fluorine atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its moderate solubility in water and good solubility in organic solvents, which makes it useful in various chemical applications. 2-Chloro-4-fluorophenol exhibits properties typical of halogenated phenols, including potential antimicrobial activity and reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. It is important to handle this compound with care due to its potential toxicity and environmental impact. As with many halogenated compounds, it may also be subject to regulations regarding its use and disposal.
