Trifluoroethanol

CAS: 77253-67-9
Molecular Formula: C2D3F3O
Molecular Weight: 103.0583
Product description:Important aliphatic fluorine-containing intermediates, are colorless, with water soluble liquid, like ethanol with smell. Due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect three groups, three fluorine ethanol more acidic than ethanol, generate hydrogen bonding and heterocyclic compound key even the stability of the complexes (such as: tetrahydrofuran, pyridine). The chemical and physical properties of this unique and special molecular structure, make its have different performance with other alcohols, can participate in a variety of organic chemical reactions, can be acetaldehyde oxidation for three fluorine or trifluoroacetic acid, also can provide three groups, participate in Horner - information - Still - Gennari improvement Emmons reaction. In medicine, pesticides, dyes, the sources of energy, has wide use in organic synthesis, etc.
