1-BROMO-1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-OCTAFLUOROBUTANE

Description:

1-Bromo-1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-octafluorobutane, with the CAS number 558-86-1, is a halogenated organic compound characterized by its fully fluorinated carbon backbone and a bromine substituent. This compound is a colorless, odorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its high stability and low reactivity due to the presence of fluorine atoms, which impart strong C-F bonds. It has a relatively high boiling point compared to non-fluorinated hydrocarbons, reflecting its unique molecular structure. The presence of bromine introduces a polar functional group, which can influence its solubility in various solvents. 1-Bromo-1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-octafluorobutane is primarily used in specialized applications, including as a solvent in chemical synthesis and as a refrigerant. Its environmental impact is a consideration, as halogenated compounds can contribute to ozone depletion and have long atmospheric lifetimes. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound due to its potential health hazards, including toxicity and environmental persistence.
