Description

Sodium 2,3,4,5-Tetrafluorobenzoate is the sodium salt derivative of a perfluorinated benzoic acid, serving as a versatile and high-purity fluorinated building block for advanced chemical synthesis. This compound is particularly valued for introducing the stable, electron-withdrawing tetrafluorobenzoate moiety into target molecules, which can significantly alter their physical, chemical, and biological properties. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty materials sectors who require precise fluorination to develop novel active ingredients or functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon in the research and development of new drug candidates, particularly for introducing fluorinated aromatic systems to improve metabolic stability, bioavailability, and binding affinity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in creating advanced herbicides, fungicides, and pesticides where the fluorinated benzoate group enhances product efficacy and environmental persistence.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Acts as a precursor or dopant in the synthesis of fluorinated organic semiconductors and liquid crystal compounds for electronic displays.
• Polymer Modification: Employed to incorporate fluorine into polymer backbones or side chains, imparting desirable properties such as chemical resistance, low surface energy, and thermal stability.
• Complex Ligand & Catalyst Preparation: Useful in organometallic chemistry for preparing fluorinated ligands that can modify the activity and selectivity of metal catalysts.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Serves as a standard reagent in chemical libraries for exploring structure-activity relationships (SAR) in various fluorination studies.

Quality Control

Our Sodium 2,3,4,5-Tetrafluorobenzoate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed batch-specific results are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and handling properties.
