Description

8-Iodo-1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-Nonafluorooctane is a highly fluorinated organic iodide compound, valued for its unique combination of chemical inertness and reactivity at the iodine site. This makes it a critical intermediate for synthesizing advanced fluorinated materials and specialty chemicals. It is primarily sought by R&D and production teams in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for applications requiring precise fluorination and functionalization.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and diagnostic agents.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating novel fluorinated pesticides and herbicides with enhanced stability and efficacy.
• Fluorinated Polymer & Material Production: Acts as a monomer or modifier in the development of specialty polymers, coatings, and surfactants with oil-, water-, and stain-repellent properties.
• Electronics & Semiconductor Industry: Employed in the formulation of specialty etching agents and cleaning fluids for sensitive electronic components.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Research: Utilized as a precursor for fluorinated compounds used in display technologies.
• Catalyst & Ligand Development: Functions as a precursor for creating fluorinated ligands in catalysis.
• Refrigerant & Heat Transfer Fluid Research: Investigated for potential use in next-generation, low-global-warming-potential (GWP) cooling systems.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Each batch is analyzed using advanced techniques including GC, HPLC, and NMR to verify identity, purity, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, providing full transparency and traceability for your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). This compound is light-sensitive and should be stored away from light. It is also easily oxidized and should be handled and stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from strong acids and organic solvents.
