4-Nitrofluorobenzene(CAT: R020987) is a versatile aromatic compound featuring a nitro group and a fluorine atom in para positions on a benzene ring. As an activated aryl fluoride, it readily undergoes nucleophilic aromatic substitution, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Commonly used in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes, it serves as a building block for introducing functionalized aromatic systems. The electron-withdrawing nitro group enhances reactivity, enabling selective transformations such as amination or coupling reactions. 4-Nitrofluorobenzene is particularly useful in developing anilines, heterocycles, and other derivatives important in medicinal and materials chemistry.
