Abstract

Liquid perfluorocarbons exhibit unique physical–chemical characteristics such as extraordinary stability, combined hydrophobia and lipophobia, low surface tension and a capacity to carry large quantities of gas. They have found widespread use in industry, medicine and biology even though the molecular origin of these properties is not fully understood. The objective of the present work was to elucidate the physical behavior of perfluorinated linear alkanes by investigating their intramolecular electronic environment using ^13^C and ^19^F NMR techniques in combination with theoretical calculations of molecular orbitals. Particular advantage was taken of ^19^F–^19^F through‐space couplings, which led us to propose a molecular model in which delocalized p‐electrons of the fluorines cover the entire surface of the molecule in two pairs of intertwined helices. Experimental data are presented for n‐perfluorononane and supported by corresponding measurements with shorter and longer perfluorinated alkanes. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A series of norborn-7-yl fluorides were synthesized and their 19F and "C NMR spectra were recorded. The 19F chemical shift trends and the one-bond carbon-fluorine coupling constants (I&) were examined and are discussed in the light of computed geometries for 7-norbornyl fluoride (4), 7-anti-norborne
