Description

4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-Heptadecafluoroundecyl Azide is a specialized fluorinated azide compound, serving as a critical building block for introducing perfluorinated chains via click chemistry. Its high fluorine content and reactive azide group make it invaluable for creating advanced materials with unique surface properties. This compound is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, materials science, and specialty chemical industries for developing fluorinated polymers, surface modifiers, and bioactive conjugates.

Application

• Click Chemistry Reagent: A key precursor for copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) to attach long perfluorinated chains to molecules, polymers, or surfaces.
• Fluoropolymer Synthesis: Used as a monomer or modifier to incorporate highly fluorinated segments, enhancing chemical resistance, thermal stability, and hydrophobicity/oleophobicity in polymers.
• Surface Functionalization: Enables the creation of ultra-low energy, non-stick, and anti-fouling coatings for textiles, medical devices, and electronics.
• Pharmaceutical & Agrochemistry Intermediates: Facilitates the synthesis of fluorinated analogs of drug candidates or agrochemicals to improve metabolic stability, bioavailability, or membrane permeability.
• Material Science Research: Employed in developing novel self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), liquid crystals, and other advanced fluorinated materials.
• Bioconjugation: Useful for labeling biomolecules (proteins, peptides) with fluorinated tags for imaging, diagnostics, or therapeutic applications.

Quality Control

Our production of 4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-Heptadecafluoroundecyl Azide adheres to stringent internal quality standards to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and industrial use. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques, including NMR, FT-IR, and HPLC. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, ideally at 2-8°C (refrigerated) or as specified on the label. Due to its properties of being highly volatile and easily oxidized, it is recommended to store this material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) and handle it in a fume hood to minimize exposure and degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
