9-Decen-1-ol
9-Decen-1-ol (CAS: 13019-22-2; Formula: H₂C=CH(CH₂)₈OH) is an unsaturated primary alcohol with a molar mass of 156.27 g/mol. It serves as a versatile building block in organic synthesis, primarily utilised for creating specific chemical intermediates. Its structure, featuring both a terminal alkene and a hydroxyl group, allows for diverse reactivity in chemical transformations, making it valuable in the development of functionalised materials.

Preparation of Semifluorinated Acids
9-Decen-1-ol is employed in synthesising semifluorinated acids. These acids are crucial intermediates for preparing unique block copolymers, such as poly(styrene-<i>b</i>-semifluorinated isoprene).
Synthesis of Functionalised Polymers
The compound facilitates the creation of polymers with specific end-group functionalities, like -CF₂H-terminated side groups. This is achieved through the incorporation of derived semifluorinated acids into polymer structures.
Organic Synthesis Intermediate
As a bifunctional molecule (alkene and alcohol), 9-Decen-1-ol acts as a valuable building block in multi-step organic syntheses. It enables the introduction of a ten-carbon chain with terminal unsaturation and hydroxyl reactivity.
