Description
5-Fluoroanthranilic Acid (CAS No. 446-08-2) is a high-purity fluorinated aromatic compound with the molecular formula C7H6FNO2 and IUPAC name 2-amino-5-fluorobenzoic acid. This fine chemical is an essential building block in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and specialty fluorinated compounds. Its unique structure, featuring both an amino and carboxylic acid functional group on a fluorinated benzene ring, makes it a versatile intermediate for heterocyclic chemistry, peptidomimetics, and ligand design. Our product is rigorously tested for purity (typically ≥98% by HPLC) and is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder with excellent batch-to-batch consistency. Proper storage in cool, dry conditions under inert atmosphere is recommended to maintain stability.
