C22F14
C22F14 is a semiconducting fluorocarbon compound characterized by a complex arrangement of carbon and fluorine atoms.
About C22F14
C22F14 is a complex fluorinated carbon structure that exhibits semiconducting electronic behavior. As a synthetic organic-inorganic hybrid material, it represents a specialized configuration of carbon and fluorine atoms that has been documented in multiple structural arrangements.
While this compound is currently identified as being above the thermodynamic hull, suggesting potential instability under ambient conditions, it remains a subject of interest for researchers investigating the limits of fluorocarbon synthesis. Its unique composition provides a platform for studying the interplay between carbon frameworks and high-electronegativity substituents.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for C22F14, aggregated across 3 databases.
