Perfluorotripentylamine is an organic compound with the chemical formula N((CF2)4CF3)3.
It is used as an electronics coolant, and has a high boiling point.
Unlike ordinary amines, perfluoroamines are of low basicity.
Perfluorinated amines are components of fluorofluids, used as immersive coolants for supercomputers.
[1] It is prepared by electrofluorination of the amine using hydrogen fluoride as solvent and source of fluorine:[1] Fluoroamines are generally of very low toxicity, so much that they have been evaluated as synthetic blood.
