:

octafluoro-2-butanone

Description:
Octafluoro-2-butanone, with the CAS number 337-20-2, is a perfluorinated ketone characterized by its unique chemical structure, which includes a four-carbon backbone with eight fluorine atoms substituting for hydrogen atoms. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its high stability and low reactivity due to the strong carbon-fluorine bonds. It has a relatively low boiling point and is non-flammable, making it suitable for various industrial applications, particularly in the electronics and chemical manufacturing sectors. Octafluoro-2-butanone is also notable for its solvent properties, often used in processes requiring non-polar solvents. Additionally, it exhibits low surface tension and high dielectric constant, which can be advantageous in specific applications. However, due to its perfluorinated nature, environmental and health concerns are associated with its persistence and potential bioaccumulation. Proper handling and disposal measures are essential to mitigate any risks associated with its use.
