3-Bromo-2-fluoroanisole(CAT: L015114) is a halogenated aromatic compound featuring a bromine atom at the 3-position, a fluorine atom at the 2-position, and a methoxy group at the 1-position of the benzene ring. This electron-rich and sterically diverse structure makes it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly for cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki, Heck, and Buchwald–Hartwig. The combined presence of fluoro and bromo substituents offers regioselective opportunities for functionalization in pharmaceutical and materials chemistry. 3-Bromo-2-fluoroanisole is frequently employed in the design of bioactive molecules, heterocycles, and fluorinated scaffolds with tailored electronic and physicochemical properties.
