CAS 320-97-8

4-Fluorophthalic acid

Description:

4-Fluorophthalic acid, with the CAS number 320-97-8, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid group on the phthalic acid structure. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. The compound exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. Its fluorine substituent can influence the compound's reactivity and physical properties, such as melting point and boiling point, compared to its non-fluorinated counterparts. 4-Fluorophthalic acid is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fluorinated compounds. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.

CAS: 320-97-8

4-Fluorophthalic acid is a monomer that forms polymers with high molecular weights. 4-Fluorophthalic acid is soluble in water and has been shown to be effective as a disinfectant. It has also been shown to have strong antifungal activity against Candida albicans and other species of yeast, due to its ability to penetrate the cell wall. Fluorinated surfaces have been shown to have increased resistance to bacterial colonization, which may be due to an increase in surface wettability or the formation of a fluorocarbon film on the surface. 4-Fluorophthalic acid can be used for the production of covid-19 (pandemic influenza vaccine), which is a vaccine that contains small quantities of 4-fluorophthalic acid, making it more stable during storage. The presence of this molecule makes it possible for Covid-19 vaccines to be safely stored at room temperature without refrigeration
