Description
1,2-Difluoro-4-nitrobenzene (CAS No. 369-34-6) is a high-purity aromatic compound with the molecular formula C6H3F2NO2. This fluorinated nitrobenzene derivative is characterized by its two fluorine atoms at the 1- and 2-positions and a nitro group at the 4-position of the benzene ring, offering unique reactivity for electrophilic substitution and nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions. It is supplied as a crystalline solid with a purity of ≥98%, ideal for synthetic organic chemistry, pharmaceutical intermediates, and agrochemical research. Suitable for use in Suzuki coupling, Ullmann reactions, and as a precursor for advanced materials. Store in a cool, dry place away from light and oxidizing agents.

Application
1,2-Difluoro-4-nitrobenzene is widely used as a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of fluorinated pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its electron-deficient aromatic ring makes it a valuable substrate for SNAr reactions to introduce heteroatoms or functional groups. Researchers also utilize it in the development of liquid crystals, OLED materials, and specialty polymers. The compound’s nitro group can be reduced to an amine for further derivatization.
