Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Fluorinated Building Blocks
Fluorine always maintains an oxidation state of -1 in the diverse range of chemical compounds it forms. When bonding with other atoms, fluorine can form either ionic or polar covalent bonds.
Fluorinated building blocks are highly hydrophobic due to the strong stability of the C-F bond and weak intermolecular interactions between fluorocarbon molecules. This results in their low surface energy, excellent waterproofing and oil-repellent properties.
The incorporation of fluorine atoms into drug molecules can modulate their lipophilicity, pKa, conformation, and bioavailability, making it a valuable tool in pharmaceutical chemistry.
Due to the low polarity and electronegativity of fluorine, fluorinated substances can be used as effective natural waterproof barriers to prevent the penetration of water molecules into materials.
Organofluorine compounds encompass a broad range of molecules, reflecting the inherent complexity of organic chemistry. The diversity is vast, with numerous small molecules featuring different levels of fluorine substitution, alongside a variety of polymers. Research into these compounds is often driven by their commercial applications and potential value.
