Description
4-Fluoro-2-nitrotoluene (CAS: 446-10-6) is a halogenated nitroaromatic compound, with a methyl group at the 1-position, a nitro group at the 2-position and a fluorine atom at the 4-position of the benzene ring. It exhibits high chemical reactivity due to the electron-withdrawing nitro group and electron-withdrawing fluorine atom, serving as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis for preparing fluorine-containing fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
