General Description

1-(perfluoro-n-hexyl)decane is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of perfluoroalkanes, which are organic compounds containing only carbon and fluorine atoms. It is a long-chain perfluorinated compound with multiple carbon atoms connected to each other and fully saturated with fluorine atoms. This chemical is used in various industrial applications, including as a surfactant, in the production of non-stick coatings, and in the manufacturing of electronics. Its unique properties, such as high thermal stability and hydrophobicity, make it useful in a wide range of applications. However, due to concerns about the potential environmental and health impacts of perfluorinated compounds, there is ongoing research and regulatory scrutiny on the use and disposal of 1-(perfluoro-n-hexyl)decane and similar chemicals.

Metal-Free Visible Light Hydroperfluoroalkylation of Unactivated Alkenes Using Perfluoroalkyl Bromides

Organic dye-catalyzed visible light induced hydroperfluoroalkylation of unactivated alkenes is described. Hydroperfluoroalkylation proceeds selectively and is applicable for various perfluoroalkyl bromide and alkenes including internal alkenes. The reaction mechanism is discussed, and it is shown that the hydrogen source varies with reaction conditions.

(Me3Si)3SiH-mediated intermolecular radical perfluoroalkylation reactions of olefins in water

Figure presented. Perfluoroalkyl-substituted compounds are regarded as important components of fluorophors and for the introduction of fluorous tags into organic substrates. Their syntheses in organic solvents are achieved through different methods, among which, the addition of perfluoroalkyl radicals to unsaturated bonds represents a convenient choice. On the other hand, intermolecular radical reactions in water have attracted the attention of synthetic chemists as a strategic route to carbon-carbon bond formation reactions. In this paper we undertook the intermolecular addition of perfluoroalkyl radicals on electron rich alkenes and alkenes with electron withdrawing groups in water, mediated by silyl radicals, and obtained perfluoroalkyl-substituted compounds in fairly good yields. The radical triggering events employed consist of the thermal decomposition of an azo compound and the dioxygen initiation. Our results indicate that for intermolecular carbon-carbon bond formation reactions mediated by (Me 3Si)3SiH, the decomposition of the azo compound 1,1′-azobis(cyclohexanecarbonitrile) (ACCN) is the best radical initiator. We also found that water exerts a relevant solvent effect on the rates of perfluoroalkyl radical additions onto double bonds and the H atom abstraction from the silane. Our account provides a versatile and convenient method to achieve perfluoroalkylation reactions of alkenes in water to render perfluoroalkylated alkanes as key intermediates in the synthesis of fluorophors and other fluorinated materials. This is the first report where perfluoroalkyl-substituted alkanes are synthesized through intermolecular radical carbon-carbon bond formation reactions in water, mediated by silyl radicals.
