higherfluorination
Higher fluorination refers to the process of introducing a greater number of fluorine atoms into a molecule than is typically found in naturally occurring compounds or in less fluorinated analogs. This can involve replacing hydrogen atoms with fluorine, or adding fluorine atoms to existing functional groups or the carbon skeleton of organic molecules. The degree of fluorination can range from partial substitution to perfluorination, where all possible positions are occupied by fluorine.
The introduction of fluorine atoms significantly alters the chemical and physical properties of a molecule. Fluorine
Examples of higher fluorinated compounds include perfluorocarbons, which are fully saturated hydrocarbons where all hydrogen atoms
