3,3,3-Trifluoropropionic acid (CAS 407-98-5) is a fluorinated carboxylic acid synthesized via hydrofluoroalkylation of acrylic acid. Its molecular formula is C3H3F3O2. This intermediate serves as a critical building block for introducing trifluoromethyl groups into complex organic structures.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE including acid-resistant gloves and eye protection due to corrosive nature. Avoid inhalation of vapors.
