Product Information

• Name: 2-Chloro-1-(3,4-difluoro-phenyl)-ethanone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Chloro-1-(3,4-difluoro-phenyl)-ethanone (2CFP) is an organic compound that is used as a choline precursor in the synthesis of acetylcholine. It has been shown to have escherichia coli inhibitory activity and can be used for process optimization in the synthesis of 2-chloroacetaldehyde from choline. The enzyme activities are specific to the concentration of substrate and the molecule's ability to permeate through cell membranes. 2CFP is synthesized by reduction of chloride ions with catalytic amounts of copper metal at an acceptor such as ticagrelor.
