Fluorobenzene is the chemical compound with the formula C6H5F often abbreviated PhF. This species is a derivative of benzene with a single fluorine atom attached. Its melting point is -44 °C which is lower than that of benzene indicative of the remarkable effect of fluorination on the intermolecular interactions as seen throughout organofluorine chemistry. In contrast the boiling points of PhF and benzene differ by only 4 °C.
