1,1,1,2,3,4,4,4-octafluoro-2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)butane

Description:

1,1,1,2,3,4,4,4-Octafluoro-2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)butane, with CAS number 354-96-1, is a fluorinated organic compound characterized by its high fluorine content, which imparts unique chemical and physical properties. This substance is a colorless gas or liquid at room temperature, exhibiting low volatility and high stability due to the strong carbon-fluorine bonds. It is non-flammable and has a low global warming potential compared to other fluorinated compounds, making it of interest in various applications, including as a refrigerant and in specialty solvents. The presence of multiple trifluoromethyl groups contributes to its high electronegativity and hydrophobic nature, resulting in low solubility in water but good solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, it is chemically inert under standard conditions, which enhances its utility in industrial processes. However, like many fluorinated compounds, it may have environmental implications, necessitating careful handling and consideration of its lifecycle.
