Pentadecafluorooctanoic Acid Methyl Ester

Methyl perfluorooctanoate may be employed in the following studies Synthesis of monodisperse perfluoroalkyl N-polyethoxylated amides potential nonionic fluorinated surfactants. To investigate the mutual solubility curves of fluorocarbon-hydrocarbon systems.Synthesis of fluorine-containing monomer N-(5-hydroxypent-1-yl)perfluorooctaneamide. Preparation of 2-chloro-11-dicyano-2-(perfluoroheptyl)ethylene a precursor for synthesizing perfluorocarbon-soluble dyes. To investigate the vinyl ether formulations for use in step and flash imprint lithography.

For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

Methyl perfluorooctanoate (MePFOA) is reported to be formed during storage of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in methanol.[5]Its physical properties like density boiling point and refractive index have been determined experimentally.
