Description

2-(2',4',6'-Trifluorophenoxy)Propane is a specialized fluorinated aromatic ether compound, identified by CAS NO 1310416-65-9. This high-value intermediate is critical for the synthesis of advanced materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where the introduction of fluorine atoms is required to modulate biological activity and physicochemical properties. It is primarily sought by research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for constructing complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting CNS disorders and anti-infective agents.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of next-generation herbicides and pesticides, where the trifluorophenoxy moiety enhances lipophilicity and metabolic stability.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Serves as a precursor for fluorinated components in electronic display materials, improving charge transport and thermal stability.
• Polymer Modification: Employed to introduce fluorine-containing side chains into polymers, enhancing their chemical resistance, surface properties, and durability.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Utilized in cross-coupling reactions and as a protecting group or directing agent in complex multi-step synthetic routes.
• Fluorinated Surfactant Research: Acts as a starting material for creating specialty surfactants with unique surface tension properties for high-performance coatings.

Quality Control

Every batch of 2-(2',4',6'-Trifluorophenoxy)Propane is manufactured under strict quality management systems and undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistency and purity. Our standard grade meets a typical purity specification of ≥97% (by GC/HPLC), with detailed impurity profiling available. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting identity, assay, and relevant physical parameters. We support custom synthesis and can tailor purity grades (including >99%) to meet specific research or cGMP starting material requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be handled and stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Due to its high volatility, ensure containers are securely sealed and stored upright.
