2,4-difluorocinnamic acid

Description:
2,4-Difluorocinnamic acid is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a cinnamic acid backbone with two fluorine atoms substituted at the 2 and 4 positions of the phenyl ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as a building block in pharmaceuticals. It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of fluorine atoms can influence the compound's reactivity and stability, often enhancing its lipophilicity and altering its electronic properties. 2,4-Difluorocinnamic acid can participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic aromatic substitution and condensation reactions, making it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Additionally, its derivatives may exhibit interesting biological activities, which are of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
