3-Fluoro-4-methoxybenzeneethanol

Description:
3-Fluoro-4-methoxybenzeneethanol, also known by its CAS number 404-91-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a methoxy group attached to a benzene ring, along with a hydroxyl (alcohol) functional group. This compound typically exhibits a polar nature due to the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility in polar solvents like water. The presence of the methoxy group can enhance the electron-donating properties of the benzene ring, potentially affecting its reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. The fluorine atom, being electronegative, can also influence the compound's overall electronic properties, making it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry and materials science. Additionally, 3-Fluoro-4-methoxybenzeneethanol may exhibit specific biological activities, which can be explored for pharmaceutical applications. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, would typically be influenced by the functional groups present and the molecular structure.
