01 /Applications

Preparation of Catalysts

Used in the synthesis of organoboron compounds, such as 3,5-bis(perfluorodecyl)phenylboronic acid, which acts as a "green" catalyst for direct amide condensation reactions.

Fluorinated Olefin Synthesis

Serves as a precursor for the synthesis of fluorinated alkenes, like 3-(perfluorodecyl)prop-1-ene, enabling the creation of novel fluorinated materials.

Fluorinated Building Block

As a fluorinated organic building block, it is utilised in complex syntheses requiring the introduction of perfluorinated alkyl chains.
