2,2,2-Trifluoroacetamide, 97%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

2,2,2-Trifluoroacetamide used in a convenient alternative to the Gabriel synthesis of primary amines from halides by N-alkylation followed by cleavage of the readily-hydrolyzed trifluoroacetyl group and for improved N-alkylation under phase-transfer conditions allowing successive alkylation with different alkyl groups.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
