Hexafluoroacetone trihydrate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Hexafluoroacetone trihydrate, also known as gem diol, hexafluoropropan-2,2- diol, is a covalent hydrate of the ketone. It could used as a structure stabilizer for peptides. It was a metabolite of aerosol propellant HFA-227 and is present in the urine. It was shown to undergo an efficient carbonyl-ene reaction with a variety of alkenes in the presence of molecular sieves under microwave heating and conventional heating producing hexafluoroisopropanol functionalized derivatives in high yields[1-2].

Uses

Hexafluoroacetone trihydrate (HFA?3H2O) is used to produce Sevoflurane,a high quality anesthetic and Bisphenol AF, a crosslinker for fluoroelastomers. It can also be used to produce various high-end fluorinated products such as fluorinated polyimide, etc.

Uses

Hexafluoroacetone trihydrate was used to study the kinetics and thermodynamics of linkage isomerization of (acetone)pentaammineruthenium (III) and-ruthenium (II) complexes. It was used in a study to reconstitute the α-and β-polypeptides of both Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Rhodospirillum rubrum with bacteriochlorophyll a.

General Description

Hexafluoroacetone trihydrate forms crystalline 1:1 complexes with imidazole 3-oxides.
