Product Information
Pentafluoroethanesulfonamide (PFES) is a chemical that is used as a precursor to fluorinated organic solvents. PFES is also used in the synthesis of cationic polymers and pharmaceuticals. The chemical structure of PFES consists of a hydroxyl group, which can be replaced by other groups such as amide, carboxylate, or sulfonyl. The synthesis of PFES involves an electrochemical reaction between perfluorinated hydrocarbons and amides in a solvent such as water or hydrocarbon. This process creates PFES, which is then isolated from the solution by precipitation with alcohols. Due to its high reactivity, PFES has been shown to have anti-cancer effects on human breast cancer cells. It also has metabolic effects on insulin resistance in mice and rats.
