2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-6-methoxynaphthalene

Description:

2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-6-methoxynaphthalene, with the CAS number 942474-98-8, is an organic compound characterized by its naphthalene backbone substituted with a methoxy group and a fluorophenyl group. This compound typically exhibits a solid state at room temperature and is likely to be non-polar due to the presence of aromatic rings, which can influence its solubility in organic solvents. The fluorine atom in the para position of the phenyl group can enhance the compound's electronic properties, potentially affecting its reactivity and interactions with biological systems. The methoxy group contributes to the overall hydrophobic character and can also participate in hydrogen bonding under certain conditions. This compound may be of interest in various fields, including materials science and medicinal chemistry, due to its unique structural features that could lead to specific biological activities or applications in organic synthesis. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as well as potential environmental impacts.
