2-Chloro-1-fluoro-3-methoxybenzene

Description:
2-Chloro-1-fluoro-3-methoxybenzene, also known by its CAS number 446-60-6, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3), a chlorine atom, and a fluorine atom attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a substituted benzene structure, where the methoxy group is positioned at the 3rd carbon, while the chlorine and fluorine substituents are located at the 2nd and 1st positions, respectively. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. The presence of electronegative halogens (chlorine and fluorine) influences its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. Additionally, the methoxy group can participate in electron-donating effects, affecting the compound's overall reactivity and stability. 2-Chloro-1-fluoro-3-methoxybenzene is used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its potential toxicity and environmental impact.
