Description:4-Chloro-2-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 para position (4-position) and the fluorine atom at the meta position (2-position) relative to the hydroxyl (-OH) group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow solid and has a distinct aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic ring. 4-Chloro-2-fluorophenol is known for its applications in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, as well as serving as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The presence of both halogen atoms can influence its reactivity, making it a useful building block in chemical reactions. Additionally, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use.
