Hexafluoroisopropanol
Description :
Overview of Hexafluoroisopropanol
Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is a highly polar, fluorinated solvent used in industrial organic synthesis, peptide production, and polymer processing. It is particularly effective in the dissolution of protein peptides, proteins, as well as polar compounds, due to the strong hydrogen bonding, as well as its low level of nucleophilicity. It appears as a transparent liquid, with its low boiling point and excellent durability. The CAS number is. 9920-66-1. Molecular formula: C3H2F6O. Molecular weight 168.04 mg/mol. The related products include Phosphorus pentachloride, Potassium Ethyl Xanthate, and Pivalic Acid, commonly used for chlorination, xanthate-based flotation, as well as fine chemical synthesis.
