Product Information

• Name: 2,4,5-Trifluoroaniline
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,4,5-Trifluoroaniline (TFAA) is a synthetic chemical that belongs to the class of electrophiles. It is a hydrogenation reduction product of 2,4,5-trichloroaniline and is used as an antibacterial agent. TFAA inhibits bacterial growth by reacting with thiols in proteins and nucleic acids. This compound has shown efficiencies on the order of 99% against gram positive bacteria and 95% against gram negative bacteria. TFAA also has been shown to inhibit the production of hydrogen sulfide in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The biological properties of TFAA are due to its ability to bind to copper ions and undergo reductive elimination or substitution reactions. The crystal structure of TFAA has been determined using x-ray diffraction techniques. In this work, it was found that TFAA adopts a planar geometry with D2d symmetry at room temperature and melts
