Overview
2-Chloro-6-fluorotoluene (CAS: 451-86-9, C7H6ClF) is a key aromatic intermediate synthesized via selective chlorination or fluorination of toluene derivatives. It serves as a critical building block in fine chemical manufacturing.
Application
- Pharmaceutical synthesis for heterocyclic drug scaffolds.
- Agrochemical production of herbicides and fungicides.
- Liquid crystal material precursor development.
Precautions
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles due to potential skin irritation and flammability risks.
