Application

Ethyl 2-(4-fluorophenyl)acetate is widely employed as a key building block in the synthesis of fluorinated pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and liquid crystals. It serves as a versatile intermediate in cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki-Miyaura) to introduce fluorophenyl motifs into complex molecules. Researchers also utilize it in the development of prodrugs and fragrance compounds due to its hydrolytically labile ester group. Its fluorinated aromatic structure enhances bioavailability in drug discovery applications.
