2-Fluorobenzyl chloride
CAS 345-35-7
Two halogens, two jobs: Cl is designed to leave; F is designed to stay. That contrast makes 2-fluorobenzyl chloride a useful fluorinated intermediate.
2-Fluorobenzyl chloride (CAS 345-35-7): chlorine is the reactive handle, fluorine is usually the retained design element. One small molecule separates synthesis from property tuning.
