Description

1-Bromo-11-Fluoroundecane is a high-purity, bifunctional organic building block featuring both a reactive bromoalkyl terminus and a stable fluoroalkyl chain. This compound is essential for advanced material synthesis, offering a versatile handle for nucleophilic substitution and a fluorinated moiety to impart unique physicochemical properties. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for creating novel surfactants, liquid crystals, and bioactive molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthon for the introduction of long-chain fluoroalkyl groups into drug candidates, potentially enhancing metabolic stability and lipophilicity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides and pesticides where the fluorinated chain can influence bioavailability and environmental persistence.
• Specialty Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a monomer or modifier for synthesizing fluorinated polymers, surfactants, and coatings with low surface energy and chemical resistance.
• Liquid Crystal Production: Employed in the synthesis of fluorinated liquid crystal compounds for advanced display technologies.
• Surface Modification Agent: Used to create self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) or to fluorinate surfaces, altering wettability and adhesion properties.
• Cross-coupling Reagent: The bromine atom facilitates various metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck) for complex molecule assembly.
