Description:3-Chloro-4-fluorophenol is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both chlorine and fluorine substituents on a phenolic ring. Specifically, the chlorine atom is located at the meta position (3-position) and the fluorine atom at the para position (4-position) relative to the hydroxyl (-OH) group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its moderate solubility in water and higher solubility in organic solvents, which makes it useful in various chemical applications. 3-Chloro-4-fluorophenol exhibits properties typical of halogenated phenols, including potential antimicrobial activity and reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety considerations should be taken into account, as it may be harmful if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate handling procedures should be followed. Its applications can range from use in pharmaceuticals to serving as an intermediate in organic synthesis.
