4-Fluoro-3-formylbenzoic acid（Cat No.:L014124）is an aromatic carboxylic acid with the molecular formula C8H5FO3, featuring a fluorine atom at the para position and an aldehyde group at the meta position relative to the carboxylic acid on the benzene ring. This compound serves as a useful intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine organic materials. The combination of electron-withdrawing fluorine and formyl groups enhances its chemical reactivity, enabling further functionalization through condensation, coupling, or nucleophilic addition reactions. It is especially valuable in designing fluorinated heterocycles and bioactive molecules.
