Description

5-(3-Fluoro-Phenyl)-Furan-2-Carbaldehyde is a high-purity fluorinated aromatic aldehyde building block, serving as a critical intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its core value lies in enabling the precise introduction of both a furan ring and a fluorine-substituted phenyl moiety into target molecules, which is essential for modulating their electronic properties and biological activity. This compound is primarily needed by research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the creation of novel active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon for the development of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting CNS disorders, inflammation, and oncology.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced pesticides and herbicides, where the fluorine atom enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability.
• Material Science Research: Serves as a precursor for functional organic materials, including liquid crystals, organic semiconductors, and photoactive polymers.
• Chemical Biology & Probe Development: Employed in the synthesis of fluorescent probes and molecular tags for studying biological processes.
• Academic & Contract Research: A valuable reagent for methodology development and complex molecule synthesis in university and CRO laboratories.
