1-Fluorododecane is a long chain 1-fluoroalkane. It can be synthesized from the reaction between 1-dodecanol, N,N-diethyl-α,α-difluoro-[3,5-bis(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl)benzyl]amine and heptane. 1-Fluorododecane undergoes reaction with dibromomethane and titanocene dichloride in the presence of triethyl aluminium (Et3Al) to afford a mixture of 1-chlorododecane and 1-bromododecane. 1-Fluorododecane can also be prepared from 1-hydroxydodecane.
