It may be prepared via the Schiemann reaction, in which a 4-aminobenzoic acid, protected as the ethyl ester, is diazotised and then fluoride introduced using tetrafluoroborate. Hydrolysis of the ester converts it back to the free acid. [2] 4-Fluorobenzoic acid has been observed to form by the aerobic biotransformation of 4-fluorocinnamic acid. [3]
Organisms sometimes synthesize phenolic compounds in response to ecological pressures such as pathogen and insect attack, UV radiation and wounding. [5] As they are present in food consumed in human diets and in plants used in traditional medicine of several cultures, their role in human health and disease is a subject of research.
Phytosanitary irradiation is a treatment that uses ionizing radiation on commodities, such as fruits and vegetables to inactivate pests, such as insects. [1] This method is used for international food trade as a means to prevent spread of non-native organisms. [1]

Phytochemicals are chemical compounds produced by plants, generally to help them resist fungi, bacteria and plant virus infections, and also consumption by insects and other animals. The name comes from Greek φυτόν (phyton) 'plant'. Some phytochemicals have been used as poisons and others as traditional medicine.

The traditional Balz–Schiemann reaction employs HBF 4 and involves isolation of the diazonium salt. Both aspects can be profitably modified. Other counterions have been used in place of tetrafluoroborates, such as hexafluorophosphates (PF 6 −) and hexafluoroantimonates (SbF 6 −) with improved yields for some substrates.
