3,3,3-TRIFLUORO-1-PROPANOL Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Clear colorless liquid

Uses

3,3,3-Trifluoro-1-propanol is a important organic intermediate. It can be used in agrochemical, pharmaceutical and dyestuff field.

Synthesis

General procedure for the synthesis of 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanol from 2-bromo-3,3,3-trifluoropropan-1-ol: 54 g of 2-bromo-3,3,3-trifluoropropan-1-ol, 79 g of methanol, 9.7 g of activated Raney Ni catalyst and 19.3 g of potassium carbonate were added to a 300 mL autoclave. The reaction system was evacuated and displaced three times with hydrogen under stirring conditions. Subsequently, the hydrogen pressure was adjusted to 5 MPa and heated to 80°C. The reaction lasted for 3.0 hours. Upon completion of the reaction, the heating was stopped, the reaction mixture was cooled and the pressure was released. Finally, the target product 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propanol was obtained by distillation purification in 95.0% yield.
