Iodopentafluorobenzene was used to study the formation of radical ions of iodopentafluorobenzene in aqueous solution. It was used as solvent in a study to determine singlet oxygen lifetimes from phosphorescence decays in halogen substituted perfluorinated solvents by infrared emission spectrometery. It has potential applications in plasma processing industry and in preparation of catalysts.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
