Description
2-Fluorocinnamaldehyde (CAS No. 149733-71-1) is a high-purity fluorinated aromatic aldehyde with the molecular formula C9H7FO. This compound, also known by its IUPAC name (E)-3-(2-fluorophenyl)prop-2-enal, is a valuable building block in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research. The presence of both a fluorine substituent and an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde moiety makes it particularly useful for nucleophilic additions and cyclization reactions. Our product is rigorously tested to ensure >98% purity by HPLC, with detailed analytical data (NMR, MS) available upon request. Supplied in amber glass vials under inert atmosphere to ensure stability, this reagent is ideal for use in medicinal chemistry, material science, and as a precursor for fluorinated heterocycles.
