:3,3,3-Trifluorolactic acid
Description:
3,3,3-Trifluorolactic acid is a fluorinated organic compound characterized by the presence of three fluorine atoms attached to the carbon adjacent to the carboxylic acid functional group. Its molecular formula is C3H3F3O3, and it features a chiral center, which can lead to the existence of enantiomers. This compound is typically a colorless liquid or solid at room temperature and is known for its strong acidity due to the carboxylic acid group. The trifluoromethyl group significantly influences its chemical properties, enhancing its reactivity and making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can impart unique characteristics such as increased lipophilicity and stability against metabolic degradation. 3,3,3-Trifluorolactic acid is also of interest in various research applications, including studies on fluorinated compounds and their effects on biological systems. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
