4-Fluoro-3-phenoxybenzoic acid

Description:

4-Fluoro-3-phenoxybenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a phenoxy group attached to a benzoic acid backbone. Its molecular structure features a fluorine substituent at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid group and a phenoxy group at the meta position. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water. It exhibits properties typical of aromatic acids, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding due to the carboxylic acid functional group. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence its reactivity and stability, often enhancing lipophilicity and altering the compound's biological activity. 4-Fluoro-3-phenoxybenzoic acid is utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its unique chemical properties. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards associated with this compound.

4-Fluoro-3-phenoxy benzoic acid is a metabolite of pyrethroid insecticides. This metabolite can be found in urine samples and has been detected in the general population. The concentration of 4-fluoro-3-phenoxy benzoic acid in urine is higher in females than males, which may be due to the excretion of metabolites from insecticide exposure. It has also been shown that this metabolite is found at higher concentrations in people with high levels of carboxylic acids. It is not known if 4-fluoro-3-phenoxy benzoic acid is harmful to humans or other animals.
