Application

Chloropentafluoroacetone is primarily used as a fluorinated building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Its reactivity makes it suitable for nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the chlorine or fluorine atoms can be selectively replaced. Researchers also employ it in the development of fluorinated polymers and surfactants due to its ability to introduce stable fluorinated groups. Additionally, it serves as a precursor for catalysts and ligands in coordination chemistry.
