Application

Tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile can be used in the synthesis of Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIM). Tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile was used to study ultraviolet (UV)-rearranged polymers of PIM-1 membranes for efficient separation of H2 and CO2 .

General description

Tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile reacts with alkyl Grignard reagents to form corresponding 4-alkyltetrafluorobenzonitriles. Tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile acts as a four-electron donor ligand and forms tungsten(II)η2-nitrile complexes.

There has been recent interest in polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) for solid-state hydrogen-storage materials; however, the gas-sorption properties and conditions for hydrogen uptake are relatively unexplored. PIM-1 has been synthesised using the condensation reaction between 3,3,3,3-tetramethyl-1,1-spirobisindane-5,5,6,6-tetraol and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophthalonitrile as

Polydopamine-modified additives have been thus far widely used in the mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for gas separation. However, very few reports focus on the polydopamine alone and investigate its contribution to the gas separation performance. Herein, the polydopamine-derived submicrospheres (PDASS)

Microporous polymers derived from the 1,2- and 1,4-regioisomers of di(3',4'-dihydroxyphenyl)tetraphenylbenzene have very different properties with the former being composed predominantly of cyclic oligomers whereas the latter is of high molar mass suitable for the formation of robust solvent-cast films of
