Usage：

2-fluoro-5-bromobenzonitrile, as a common intermediate in organic synthesis, is mainly used to convert bromine atoms and fluorine atoms on the benzene ring to synthesize the molecular structure of the target. For example, bromine atoms can be Suzuki coupled to introduce an aromatic ring or an alkyl chain; Or to convert bromine atoms into boric acid or borate ester, using the borate diversity of Chemicalbook conversion ability to achieve the synthesis of complex molecules. Fluorine can also undergo a variety of transformations including aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions. Finally, the cyanide group on the benzene ring can be easily converted into amide, ester group, carboxyl group and so on. Through selective regulation and coordination of these reactions, 1,2, 4-trisubstituted benzene derivatives can be prepared and synthesized rapidly.
