Description

Silane, Bicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-2-Yltrifluoro-, Endo- (9Ci) is a specialized organosilicon compound featuring a norbornane (bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane) framework with a reactive trifluorosilane group. This unique structure makes it a valuable precursor in advanced materials science, particularly for introducing hydrophobic and fluorinated properties into polymers and surfaces. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for synthesizing novel intermediates and functional materials. Its defined stereochemistry (endo configuration) is critical for applications requiring precise molecular geometry.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key building block for synthesizing complex, fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs, leveraging the norbornane scaffold's rigidity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel pesticides and herbicides where the fluorinated silane moiety can enhance biological activity and environmental stability.
• Surface Modification Agent: Imparts highly hydrophobic and oleophobic characteristics to glass, metals, and ceramics for creating water-repellent and anti-fouling coatings.
• Advanced Polymer Monomer: Employed in the synthesis of specialty silicones and fluoropolymers with tailored thermal, chemical, and surface properties for high-performance applications.
• Adhesion Promoter: Functions as a coupling agent in composite materials, improving the bond between organic polymers and inorganic fillers or substrates.
• Lithography and Semiconductor Research: Investigated as a potential precursor for thin film deposition or surface functionalization in microelectronics fabrication.

Quality Control

Every batch of Silane, Bicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-2-Yltrifluoro-, Endo- (9Ci) is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We employ advanced analytical techniques including GC, NMR (¹H, ¹⁹F, ²⁹Si), and IR spectroscopy to ensure identity, purity, and stereochemical integrity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are provided and can be tailored to meet the requirements of cGMP, ISO, or other relevant quality systems for pharmaceutical and industrial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, this material must be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C to maximize stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers, acids, and bases.
