Overview
Perfluoroiododecane is a fully fluorinated alkyl iodide synthesized via radical iodination of perfluorodecane. It serves as a specialized intermediate in high-performance fluid manufacturing. Molecular Formula: C10F21I; CAS No.: 423-65-8.
Application
- Liquid Scintillation Counting: Acts as a solvent for high-energy beta emitters due to low quenching properties.
- Phase Transfer Catalysts: Facilitates reactions in biphasic systems requiring extreme chemical inertness.
- Dielectric Fluids: Utilized in specialized electrical insulation where thermal stability is critical.
Precautions
Strictly non-pharmaceutical grade; not approved for clinical use. Store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below 25°C to prevent decomposition. Handle with full PPE to avoid inhalation risks associated with heavy halogenated vapors.
