Perfluorocycloalkene
Perfluorocycloalkene
Class of chemical compounds
A perfluorocycloalkene (PFCA) fluorocarbon structure with a cycloalkene core. PFCAs have shown reactivity with a wide variety of nucleophiles including phenoxides, alkoxides, organometallic, amines, thiols, and azoles.[1] They or their derivatives are reported to have nonlinear optical activity,[2] and be useful as lubricants,[3] etching agents,[4] components of fuel cells,[5] low dielectric materials, and super hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings.[6]
