Description:4-Fluorosalicylaldehyde, with the CAS number 348-28-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of aromatic aldehydes. It features a fluorine atom substituted at the para position of the salicylaldehyde structure, which consists of a benzene ring with both a hydroxyl group (-OH) and an aldehyde group (-CHO) attached. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to the reactivity of the aldehyde functional group and the influence of the fluorine atom on the electronic properties of the molecule. 4-Fluorosalicylaldehyde can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and condensation reactions. Additionally, it may exhibit interesting biological activities, making it a subject of research in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential, as with many organic compounds, to ensure safety and stability.
