Chemical Formula C6H5F

Molecular Weight 96.10 g/mol

Fluorobenzene, also known by its IUPAC name as phenyl fluoride. It has a relatively simple structure, with a single fluorine atom replacing one hydrogen atom on the benzene ring. The presence of fluorine in the compound makes it distinct from other benzene derivatives due to its ability to influence the reactivity and stability of the benzene ring. Fluorobenzene is typically produced via the halogen exchange reaction known as the Schiemann reaction, where an aryl amine is converted to a diazonium salt, which is then thermally decomposed in the presence of fluorides.
