Description:

2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-Pentadecafluorooctanenitrile, with CAS number 647-12-1, is a perfluorinated compound characterized by a long carbon chain fully substituted with fluorine atoms, along with a nitrile functional group (-C≡N) at one end. This structure imparts unique properties, including high thermal stability, chemical inertness, and low surface tension. The presence of fluorine atoms contributes to its hydrophobic and lipophobic characteristics, making it resistant to degradation and useful in various applications, such as in coatings, surfactants, and specialty chemicals. Additionally, the nitrile group enhances its polarity, which can influence solubility and reactivity in certain environments. Due to its perfluorinated nature, this compound is of interest in studies related to environmental persistence and potential bioaccumulation, raising concerns about its ecological impact. Overall, 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-Pentadecafluorooctanenitrile exemplifies the unique properties of fluorinated compounds, making it significant in both industrial and environmental chemistry contexts.
