1-(4-Fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethanone

Description:
1-(4-Fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethanone, also known as 4-Fluoroacetophenone, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and a hydroxyl group attached to an ethane backbone. It features a fluorinated phenyl ring, which enhances its reactivity and influences its physical properties. The presence of the fluorine atom typically increases the compound's lipophilicity and can affect its biological activity. This substance is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The compound is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity can be attributed to the electrophilic nature of the carbonyl group, making it a useful building block in various chemical reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks upon exposure.
