Ethyl 4-fluorobenzoate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Colorless to pale yellow low melting solid

Uses

Ethyl 4-fluorobenzoate may be used in the synthesis of 4,4′-(1,4-piperazinediyl) bisbenzoic acid ethyl ester.

General Description

Ethyl 4-fluorobenzoate is a clear colorless liquid. The purified [¹⁸F]fluoride is used for solution phase nucleophilic labeling of ethyl [¹⁸F]4-fluorobenzoate. Ethyl 4-fluorobenzoate causes N-arylation of 5-methoxyindole in presence of 18-crown-6 by using microwave-assisted technology.
