General description

Iodopentafluorobenzene forms supramolecular complexes with aromatic electron donors by forming halogen bonds to form discrete heterodimeric aggregates.

Application

  • Iodopentafluorobenzene was used to study the formation of radical ions of iodopentafluorobenzene in aqueous solution.
  • It was used as solvent in a study to determine singlet oxgen lifetimes from phosphorescence decays in halogen substituted perfluorinated solvents by infrared emission spectrometery.
  • It has potential applications in plasma processing industry and in preparation of catalysts.
