General description

4-Bromo-3-fluorotoluene (1-bromo-2-fluoro-4-methylbenzene) is an aryl fluorinated building block. Synthesis of 4-bromo-3-fluorotoluene from o-nitro-p-toluidine (Fast Red Base GL), via diazo reaction at high temperature, Sandmeyer reaction, reduction and Schiemann reaction has been reported. Its density and refractive index have been determined.

Application

4-Bromo-3-fluorotoluene may be used in the preparation of 1-(4-cyano-3- fluorobenzyl)-5-imidazolecarboxaldehyde and 1-bromo-4-bromomethyl-2-fluorobenzene.

Flurbiprofen, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), has been recently described to selectively inhibit beta-amyloid(1)(-)(42) (Abeta42) secretion, the most toxic component of the senile plaques present in the brain of Alzheimer patients. The use of this NSAID in Alzheimer's disease (AD)

Poor blood-brain barrier penetration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been blamed for the failure of the selective amyloid lowering agent (SALA) R-flurbiprofen in phase 3 clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease (AD). NO-donor NSAIDs (NO-NSAIDs) provide an alternative, gastric-sparing approach
