Methyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate

Description:
Methyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate is a fluorinated organic compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes a butyrate moiety with multiple fluorine substituents. This compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a low volatility due to the presence of fluorine atoms, which enhance its stability and resistance to degradation. It is known for its low surface tension and high density compared to non-fluorinated analogs. Methyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate is often utilized in various applications, including as a solvent, in chemical synthesis, and in the production of specialty chemicals. Its fluorinated nature imparts unique properties such as increased lipophilicity and altered reactivity, making it valuable in specific industrial processes. However, handling this compound requires caution due to potential environmental and health impacts associated with fluorinated compounds. Proper safety measures should be observed to mitigate any risks during its use or disposal.
