4-FLUOROBENZYL MERCAPTAN Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

4-Fluorobenzyl mercaptan may be used in the synthesis of the degradation products of fluorapacin, namely bis(4-fluorobenzyl)disulfide and bis(4-fluorobenzyl)tetrasulfide.

General Description

4-Fluorobenzyl mercaptan undergoes reaction with p-chloranil to afford mainly 2,5-dichloro-3,6-S-disubstituted benzoquinone and 2,6-dichloro-3,5-S-disubstituted benzoquinone.
