4-Fluorobenzoyl chloride Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colourless to light yellow liquid

Uses

It is used in the synthesis of polyphenylene ether and thioether ketones and also in the synthesis fluorinated poly(aryl ether ketone)s containing 1,4-naphthalene moieties. It is also used as a raw material in engineering of plastics.

General Description

4-Fluorobenzoyl chloride undergoes Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction with 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene to give 1,5-bis(4-fluorobenzoyl)-2,6-dimethylnaphthalene.
