Fluorous Synthesis — covers fluorous solvents and Rf-tagged reagents (perfluoroalkyl chains) that exploit fluorophobic-fluorophilic properties to separate compounds based on their affinity for the fluorous phase. This group includes long-chain fluorocarbons, fluorinated thiols and iodides, and perfluoro dienes that are chemically and thermally stable.
Fluorous Synthesis is applied in fluorous-phase organic synthesis to simplify the separation of products and catalysts through liquid-liquid extraction or fluorous solid-phase extraction (F-SPE), commonly used by synthetic chemistry researchers and combinatorial developers. Rf-tagged reagents enable rapid purification without conventional chromatography, while fluorous solvents serve as inert reaction media for metal catalysts modified with perfluoroalkyl groups.
Example products in this collection: TCI U0075 355-38-4 Undecafluorohexanoyl Fluoride, TCI D6162 1800-91-5 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8-Dodecafluorodeca-1,9-diene, TCI T4056 34451-26-8 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-Tridecafluorooctane-1-thiol, TCI H0085 392-56-3 Hexafluorobenzene, TCI T2528 647-42-7 1H,1H,2H,2H-Tridecafluoro-1-n-octanol, TCI H0843 375-95-1 Heptadecafluorononanoic Acid, TCI T2074 2043-57-4 1H,1H,2H,2H-Tridecafluoro-n-octyl Iodide, TCI H0946 423-55-2 Heptadecafluoro-n-octyl Bromide.
Pay attention to the length of the perfluoroalkyl (Rf) chain and the terminal functional groups (thiol, iodide, alkene), as both determine fluorous-phase solubility and compatibility with the separation scheme used. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each product page.
