Overview
2,4-Dichloro-3-cyano-5-fluorobenzoyl chloride is a reactive acyl chloride intermediate synthesized via chlorination and cyanation of benzoic acid derivatives. Its molecular formula is C8H2Cl3NOF, typically associated with CAS No. 100097-67-4.
Application
- Pharmaceutical synthesis as a key building block for heterocyclic drug scaffolds.
- Agricultural chemistry for producing novel fluorinated herbicides and fungicides.
- Material science in developing high-performance polymers requiring halogenated linkages.
Precautions
Strictly store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below 25°C to prevent hydrolysis. Personnel must utilize full PPE including acid-resistant gloves and eye protection due to severe corrosive properties upon contact with moisture.
