Abstract Fluorinated organic compounds (FOCs) represent a class of synthetic chemicals distinguished by their resilient carbon–fluorine bonds, which demonstrate an ability to withstand environmental degradation over extended period. The integration FOCs into cutting-edge applications, including lithium-ion batteries (LiBs), presents considerable potential for harm that has not yet been sufficiently addressed. This study focuses on the fate two fluorinated aromatics, tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (TPFP B ) and tris(pentafluorophenyl)phosphine P ), given important role in improving performance LiBs. To achieve this, laboratory simulation methods total oxidizable precursor assay, electrochemistry (EC), Fenton reaction, UV-C irradiation, hydrolysis were employed. Liquid chromatography gas coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry used identification transformation products (TPs) prediction molecular formulae. Despite structural similarity between TPFP , distinct differences electrochemical behavior pathways observed. readily underwent hydroxylation hydrolysis, resulting wide range 49 TPs.
