Description

(Trifluorovinyl)Cyclohexane CAS NO 242812-08-4 is a specialized fluorinated organic compound featuring a cyclohexyl ring substituted with a trifluorovinyl group. This unique structure makes it a valuable fluorinated building block for synthesizing advanced materials with enhanced chemical resistance, thermal stability, and unique surface properties. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced polymer industries for developing novel fluorinated intermediates and specialty monomers.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthon in the research and development of novel fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to modulate bioavailability and metabolic stability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in creating advanced fluorinated pesticides and herbicides, where the fluorine atoms can improve lipophilicity and target binding.
• Specialty Polymer Monomer: Acts as a co-monomer for producing high-performance fluoropolymers and fluorinated elastomers with superior resistance to solvents, heat, and weathering.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Employed in the synthesis of fluorinated components for electronic display materials, leveraging its ability to influence dielectric anisotropy and molecular alignment.
• Surface Modification Agent: Used to create low-surface-energy coatings for applications requiring water repellency, anti-fouling, or release properties.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Provides a versatile fluorinated segment for constructing complex molecules in medicinal chemistry and material science research.

Quality Control

Our (Trifluorovinyl)Cyclohexane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research and production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. This material is moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere for prolonged storage or when opening sealed containers to prevent degradation.
