Description:
Used as a building block or intermediate for synthesis perfluorohexane plays a vital role as a reaction medium, especially for photooxidation reactions. Perfluorohexane is used as a coolant, photosensitizer in fluorous biphasic singlet oxygenation and an inert reaction medium. It is used in the electronic cooling liquid and insulator. Further, it finds application as an ultrasound contrast agent.
