Description

2-Bromo-3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-tridecafluorooct-1-ene (CAS No. 51249-64-0) is a highly fluorinated bromoalkene with the molecular formula C₈H₂BrF₁₃. This specialized fluorochemical is characterized by its unique structure, featuring a bromine substituent at the 2-position and a perfluorinated hexyl chain, making it a valuable intermediate in organofluorine chemistry. The compound exhibits exceptional thermal and chemical stability due to its perfluorinated segment, while the bromoalkene moiety provides reactivity for further functionalization. It is supplied as a high-purity liquid (typically >95% by GC) and should be stored under inert conditions to maintain stability. Researchers utilize this compound in the synthesis of fluorinated polymers, surfactants, and pharmaceuticals where the combination of fluorine and bromine reactivity is required.

Key properties include: molecular weight of 428.99 g/mol, boiling point of approximately 120-125??C, and density around 1.8 g/mL. The product is packaged in amber glass bottles with PTFE-lined caps to prevent degradation and is available in quantities from 1g to 1kg for research and development purposes.

Application

This bromoperfluoroalkene serves as a key building block in fluorochemical synthesis, particularly for introducing perfluoroalkyl groups into target molecules. It finds application in the preparation of fluorinated surfactants with unique surface-active properties. The compound is also employed in polymer chemistry to create fluorinated elastomers with enhanced chemical resistance. Additionally, pharmaceutical researchers utilize this intermediate to develop fluorine-containing drug candidates with improved metabolic stability.
