Description

2-Fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is a fluorinated benzoic acid that is used in the synthesis of 2,4-dichlorobenzenesulfonyl fluoride. It is also used to synthesize conjugates with various organic molecules such as glucuronides or chlorides. The reaction selectivity of 2-fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid depends on its physicochemical properties. For example, it can react selectively with nucleophilic compounds due to the electron donating property of the fluorine atom. It reacts with magnesium to produce a magnesium salt and hydrogen fluoride gas. This reaction may be an important industrial process for the production of hydrogen fluoride gas, which is used in the semiconductor industry and as a feedstock for other chemicals.
