4-Fluoro-3-nitrobenzoic acid (Cat No.: R051037) is an aromatic carboxylic acid with the molecular formula C₇H₄FNO₄. It features a fluorine atom at the para (4-) position and a nitro group at the meta (3-) position relative to the carboxylic acid on a benzene ring. This compound serves as a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. Its electron-withdrawing substituents enhance its reactivity in nucleophilic aromatic substitution and coupling reactions, making it useful for constructing more complex functionalized aromatic compounds.
