General description

2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorobenzaldehyde reacts with 5-(aryl)dipyrromethanes to form a variety of meso-aryl [26]hexaphyrins.

Application

2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorobenzaldehyde was used in the synthesis of novel, high molecular weight fluorinated aromatic polymers by superacid-catalyzed polyhydroxylation reaction of fluorinated carbonyl-containing compounds. 2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorobenzaldehyde was used as derivatization reagent in a study to develop a sensitive method for the determination of primary amines in sewage sludge by headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Catalytic water splitting is a highly promising area of research for the development of a hydrogen-based society. Herein, the synthesis of the bifunctional A2B-type cobalt(iii) corrole Co(BAPC)Py2 having the electron-withdrawing meso-pentafluorophenyl and the basic meso-p-aminophenyl substituents is reported.

Porphyrins are known as effective photosensitizers and can be an interesting key in phototreatment of water contaminated with micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals. They already showed to be efficient photocatalysts for the degradation of dyes, chlorophenols and other pollutants. This work
