Description

9H-Hexadecafluorononanoyl Chloride is a highly fluorinated acid chloride derivative, serving as a critical building block for introducing perfluorinated alkyl chains. This compound matters for its ability to impart exceptional chemical resistance, thermal stability, and hydrophobic/oleophobic properties to target molecules. It is primarily needed by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for synthesizing specialty fluorinated intermediates, surfactants, and polymers.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key reagent for synthesizing fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs to enhance metabolic stability and bioavailability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced fluorinated pesticides and herbicides, improving their rainfastness and environmental persistence.
• Fluorinated Surfactant & Polymer Production: Acts as a monomer or modifier for creating high-performance materials with oil, water, and stain resistance.
• Surface Modification Agent: Employed to create low-surface-energy coatings for textiles, electronics, and medical devices.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Precursor: Used in the synthesis of fluorinated components for electronic display technologies.
• Specialty Chemical Research: A versatile reagent in R&D for exploring new fluorochemistry applications and novel compound libraries.

Quality Control

Our 9H-Hexadecafluorononanoyl Chloride is produced under stringent quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and titration methods, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from strong bases, alcohols, and moisture.
