China and India are the leading exporters of 2-Fluorotoluene (CAS 95-52-3), accounting for the majority of global shipments in recent years, while the United States, Germany, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Import volumes into the U.S. and EU have remained relatively stable since 2022, with modest growth observed in Southeast Asian markets, and 2-Fluorotoluene prices have shown moderate upward pressure amid tightening supply from key Asian producers.
2-Fluorotoluene is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild aromatic odor and moderate volatility; it has a boiling point of approximately 111–113 °C and a melting point of −60 °C. It is classified as a fluorinated aromatic hydrocarbon and functions primarily as a specialty organic intermediate. Its principal industrial use is in the synthesis of fine chemicals, particularly as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals—where the fluorine substituent imparts enhanced metabolic stability and binding affinity. It is also employed in the production of liquid crystals, dyes, and certain specialty polymers.
