Application

1,6-Diiodohexane has been used:
  • in preparation of cationic tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA)-containing polyurethane surfaces
  • as solvent additive, to improve the power conversion effciency of polymer/fullerene bulk heterojunction solar cells
  • synthesis of new macrocycles, having 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone as a connecting unit
  • preparation of a novel ionic electrolyte, 3-(iodohexyl)-1-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propylcarbamoyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium iodide

With the aim of minimizing thrombus formation in blood-contacting devices, tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA)-containing polyurethane (PU) materials have been developed. Cationic PU surfaces were prepared by grafting poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) and quaternizing the tertiary amino groups with iodomethane or 1,6-diiodohexane or
