Product Description

Trifluoroacetic anhydride, also known as 1,1,1,5,5,5-Hexafluoro-3-oxapentan-2,4-dione, Perfluoro(3-oxapentan-2,4-dione), and 2,2,2-Trifluoroethanoic anhydride, is an acid used for the introduction of trifluoroacetyl group in organic synthesis. It is involved in the preparation of N- and O-trifluoroacetyl derivatives of a wide range of compounds for gas chromatography analysis. 

Trifluoroacetic anhydride is also used:

  • in the preparation of N- and O-trifluoroacetyl derivatives of a wide range of compounds for gas chromatography analysis
  • as a desiccant for trifluoroacetic acid
  • in the oxidation of aldehydes to acids, esters, amides
  • in the protection of alcohols and amines
  • as analytical reagents, solvents and dehydration condensing agent
  • as an intermediate of fluorine fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals

Apollo Scientific is one of the UK's leading chemical manufacturers, suppliers and distributors, with over 25,000 compounds as potential precursors in stock, and more than 3,000 diverse compounds created in our UK labs.
