Uses
2-Fluorobiphenyl is used as pharmaceuticals, veterinary drugs and organic synthesis intermediates. 2-Fluorobiphenyl was used as an internal standard for analysis of environmental pollutants in sediments using pressurized liquid extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, as a sole carbon & energy source for P. pseudoalcaligenes.
Reactivity Profile
Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 2-Fluorobiphenyl, are very unreactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides.
