Description

Benzoyl Fluoride, 2,3,4,5-Tetrafluoro- (9Ci) CAS NO 101513-68-2 is a highly fluorinated aromatic building block characterized by its reactive benzoyl fluoride functional group. This compound is of significant value in advanced organic synthesis, particularly for introducing the tetrafluorobenzoyl moiety into target molecules to modify their electronic properties and lipophilicity. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty materials industries for creating novel fluorinated compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) with enhanced metabolic stability and membrane permeability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used to construct fluorinated analogs of herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides to improve efficacy and environmental profile.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Employed in the development of fluorinated components for electronic display materials, leveraging its ability to fine-tune molecular polarity and intermolecular interactions.
• Polymer Modification: Acts as a monomer or grafting agent for creating specialty fluoropolymers with unique surface properties and chemical resistance.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Functions as an electrophile in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Stille) to form biaryl structures.
• Fluorinated Dye & Pigment Synthesis: A building block for synthesizing fluorinated dyes and pigments that offer superior lightfastness and color properties.

Quality Control

Our Benzoyl Fluoride, 2,3,4,5-Tetrafluoro- is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC, GC) and spectroscopy (NMR, IR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are provided and can be tailored to meet specific customer or regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under a dry inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent hydrolysis. Keep away from strong acids and organic solvents.
