Description

Tetraphenylarsonium chloride hydrate (TPAC) is a hydrogen fluoride complex with copper. It has been used as an analytical reagent for the determination of hydrogen fluoride in water and other laboratory solutions. TPAC is prepared by adding sulfuric acid to a solution of tetraphenylarsonium chloride, which dissolves to form a deep red-violet solution. The presence of TPAC can be determined by measuring the rate of absorption at 410 nm, which corresponds to the peak wavelength for this compound. The optimum concentration for TPAC is 0.01% w/v in water or 1% w/v in ethanol. TPAC has genotoxic activity and belongs to group p2, kinetic data unknown.
