Heptafluorobutyric acid (HFBA) is a perfluorinated carboxylic acid widely used as an ion-pairing agent in HPLC. Synthesized via hydrolysis of perfluorobutyronitrile, its molecular formula is C4F7O2H with CAS No. 355-06-2.
Requires storage in corrosion-resistant containers away from moisture. Use full PPE including acid-resistant gloves and fume hoods due to severe corrosivity and toxicity risks.
