Properties:Fluorobenzene is a colorless and transparent liquid with a typical aromatic odor. Density: 1.024 g/mL (25℃), Boiling point: 85℃, Melting point: -42℃, Flash point: -15℃, Refractive index (n20/D): 1.465; This substance is slightly soluble in water, miscible with organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, acetone, etc., Vapor density: 3.31 (relative to air), Vapor pressure: 79.9±0.1 mmHg (25℃); It has stable chemical properties and is a highly flammable liquid.
Applications:As a key basic raw material of aromatic organofluorine, fluorobenzene features excellent chemical stability and reactivity, serving as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis. It is widely applied in high-value industries like pharmaceuticals, pesticides, new energy, dyes & coatings, and polymer materials. With core advantages of low density and cost-effectiveness, it drives technological upgrading in related sectors. Below is a concise overview of its core applications:
1.)Pharmaceutical Industry:Fluorobenzene is indispensable for synthesizing key clinical drugs, especially antipsychotics and antibiotics. Via nitration, chlorination and acylation, it produces high-value intermediates (e.g., γ-chloro-p-fluorobutyrophenone for haloperidol synthesis, used in treating schizophrenia and mania). It also contributes to manufacturing trifluperidol, penfluridol, and ciprofloxacin (a broad-spectrum quinolone antibiotic for anti-infective therapy).
2.)Pesticide Industry:As an important intermediate for high-efficiency insecticides and ovicides, fluorobenzene’s fluorine structure enhances pesticide activity and stability. For example, p-bromofluorobenzene (derived from fluorobenzene bromination) is key for agricultural insecticides. Its intermediates also produce low-toxic pesticides like flufenoxuron, boosting crop quality and yield.
3.)New Energy Industry:Fluorobenzene achieves major breakthroughs in new energy batteries. It acts as a low-density, cost-effective hydrocarbon cosolvent with dual functions, and also serves as an overcharge protection additive for lithium-ion batteries, optimizing electrolyte performance. Diluted high-concentration electrolytes with fluorobenzene suppress decomposition, increase LiF content in SEI, enable dendrite-free lithium deposition (99.3% Coulombic efficiency, over 500 cycles), and adapt to -20℃, high capacity and high current density, advancing lithium metal battery industrialization.
4.)Dyes, Coatings & Polymer Materials Industry:As a raw material/additive in dyes and coatings, fluorobenzene improves product stability, weather resistance and coloring performance. In polymers, it is a key monomer/intermediate for high-performance plastics (PEK, PEEK) used in aerospace, electronics and medical devices. It also supports quality control via polymer identification.
5.)Organic Synthesis Industry:As a vital organofluoride intermediate, it acts as a fluorinating reagent for aromatic compounds and a soluble reaction medium (miscible with ethanol, ether, etc.). Via nitration, bromination and other reactions, it generates hundreds of intermediates for fine chemicals and materials science.
Storage:Store in a cool and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from ignition sources and heat sources. The warehouse temperature should not exceed 30℃. Keep containers tightly sealed. Store separately from oxidants; mixed storage is strictly prohibited. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities.
