Description

1-Fluoro Undecane is a high-purity, straight-chain alkyl fluoride compound, serving as a versatile building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its primary value lies in its ability to introduce fluorine atoms into complex molecules, a critical step for modifying physical, chemical, and biological properties. This specialty chemical is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science industries seeking to develop novel fluorinated compounds with enhanced stability, lipophilicity, or bioactivity.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of fluorinated drug candidates to improve metabolic stability and membrane permeability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key precursor for creating fluorinated pesticides and herbicides with increased efficacy and environmental persistence.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Acts as a fluorinated alkyl chain component to tune the dielectric anisotropy and viscosity of advanced display materials.
• Surface Modification & Coatings: Employed to impart hydrophobic and oleophobic properties to surfaces, textiles, and polymers.
• Fluorinated Surfactant Precursor: A starting material for synthesising specialty surfactants and emulsifiers with unique interfacial activity.
• Research & Development: A valuable reagent in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new fluorination methodologies and fluorine chemistry.

Quality Control

Our 1-Fluoro Undecane is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, NMR, and Karl Fischer titration, to verify identity, potency, and impurity profiles. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and concentration changes. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
