Description
4-Amino-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoic acid (CAS No. 944-43-4) is a high-purity fluorinated benzoic acid derivative with the molecular formula C7H3F4NO2. This compound features a tetrafluorinated benzene ring with an amino group at the 4-position and a carboxylic acid functionality, making it a versatile building block for pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science research. Its unique fluorination pattern enhances electron-withdrawing properties, improving reactivity in nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions and metal-catalyzed cross-couplings. Ideal for synthesizing fluorinated analogs of bioactive molecules, this product is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder with ≥98% purity (HPLC). Store in a cool, dry place under inert conditions to ensure stability.
