:Dodecanoic acid, tricosafluoro-, ethyl ester
Description:
Dodecanoic acid, tricosafluoro-, ethyl ester, also known as ethyl perfluorotridecanoate, is a fluorinated fatty acid ester characterized by its long carbon chain and the presence of fluorine atoms. This compound features a dodecanoic acid backbone, which is a saturated fatty acid with a 12-carbon chain, and is modified by the presence of a tricosafluoro group, indicating that it contains a long chain of fluorinated carbons. The ethyl ester functional group suggests that it is formed by the reaction of dodecanoic acid with ethanol, resulting in the release of water. This compound is typically non-polar due to its long hydrophobic carbon chains, while the fluorinated portion imparts unique properties such as increased thermal stability and resistance to chemical degradation. It may exhibit low surface tension and hydrophobic characteristics, making it useful in various applications, including surfactants, lubricants, and potentially in specialized coatings. However, the environmental impact and biocompatibility of fluorinated compounds are subjects of ongoing research due to concerns regarding persistence and bioaccumulation.
