4,4,4-TRIFLUORO-2-BUTANOL

Description:
4,4,4-Trifluoro-2-butanol is a fluorinated alcohol characterized by the presence of three fluorine atoms attached to the carbon backbone, specifically at the 4-position of the butanol chain. This compound features a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group, which imparts typical alcohol properties such as solubility in polar solvents and the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding. The trifluoromethyl group significantly influences its chemical behavior, enhancing its hydrophobic characteristics while also affecting its reactivity and stability. 4,4,4-Trifluoro-2-butanol is often utilized in organic synthesis and as a solvent due to its unique properties. It exhibits a relatively low volatility compared to non-fluorinated alcohols, making it suitable for specific applications in chemical processes. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can impart unique biological and environmental interactions, which may be of interest in various research fields. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as fluorinated compounds can exhibit distinct toxicological profiles.
