Benzyl (3-Fluoro-4-morpholinophenyl)carbamate (CAS number 168828-81-7) is a fluorinated heterocyclic compound, bearing a morpholine (a 6-membred heterocycle), a fluorobenzene, a carbamate linker and a benzyl group. Benzyl (3-Fluoro-4-morpholinophenyl)carbamate is one of the intermediates for synthesising linezolid, an antibiotic for treatment of Gram-positive bacteria that is resistant to other antibiotics. To synthesise linezolid, benzyl (3-Fluoro-4-morpholinophenyl)carbamate reacts with bromomethyloxirane forming an oxazolidone moiety. The bromide is subsequently replaced by acetamide to complete the molecular formation. Other than linezolid, benzyl (3-Fluoro-4-morpholinophenyl)carbamate is also used to synthesise glucose uptake inhibitor for supressing the growth of cancer cells.
