Product Information

• Name: 3-Chloro-2-fluorobenzaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Chloro-2-fluorobenzaldehyde (3CFA) is a chlorinated benzaldehyde that is stable in the presence of oxygen, UV light, and heat. It reacts with alkenes to produce fluoroalkenes by transfer hydrogenation. 3CFA is useful for the fluorination of alcohols and amines. This compound has been used as a phase transfer catalyst for the separation of organic compounds, such as solvents and intermediates. The reaction time can be shortened by irradiation or microwave heating.
