5-Bromo-2-fluoroaniline is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom at the 5th carbon position and a fluorine atom at the 2nd carbon position on an aniline (C6H5NH2) backbone. This halogenated derivative of aniline is a colorless to pale yellow solid with a molecular formula of C6H5BrFN and a molecular weight of 202.02 g/mol. It is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other specialty chemicals due to its unique combination of bromine and fluorine atoms, which can impart distinct properties to the final products. The compound is typically handled with care due to its potential reactivity and sensitivity to light and moisture.
