Description

1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-propanol (TFHP) is a molecule that contains three hydrogen atoms and two fluorine atoms. It has a frequency shift of 0.00116 cm−1 in the infrared spectrum due to the conformational properties of its hydroxyl group, which causes the OH stretching vibration to be shifted. TFHP is a weak acid that reacts with sodium trifluoroacetate to form trifluoroacetic acid and hydroxyl ions. TFHP has been shown to have biological properties in bacteria, such as inhibiting bacterial growth and suppressing protein synthesis. The molecular structure of TFHP is made up of a hydrogen atom on each nitrogen atom, which is then bonded to an intramolecular hydrogen bond and an intermolecular hydrogen bond with other TFHP molecules. The deuterium isotope can also be found in this compound, which will cause a shift in IR frequency from 0.00116 cm
