5-fluoro-2-methylbenzoyl chloride (CAS 104987-76-6, C8H6ClFO) is a key acylating agent synthesized via chlorination of the corresponding benzoic acid derivative. It serves as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis.
Store under inert atmosphere at low temperatures. Strict PPE is mandatory due to corrosive nature; hydrolysis releases toxic HCl gas.
