What is HEXAFLUOROACETYLACETONE?
Chemical properties
clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid
The Uses of HEXAFLUOROACETYLACETONE
1,1,1,5,5,5-Hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedione acts as a chelating ligand. It is used as liquid crystal intermediate.
General Description
Hexafluoroacetylacetone forms metal-chelate complexes with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Nd(III), Rh(III), Fe(III) and Cr(III). Hexafluoroacetylacetone on hydration yields 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,2,4,4-tetraol.
Purification Methods
It forms a dihydrate which has no UV spectrum compared with max (CHCl3) 273nm ( 7,800) for the anhydrous ketone. The dihydrate decomposes at ~90o. The hydrate (10g) plus anhydous CaSO4 (Drierite, 30g) are heated and distilled, the distillate is treated with more CaSO4 and redistilled. When the distillate is treated with aqueous NaOH and heated, the dihydrate crystallises on cooling. The Cu complex has m 135o (after sublimation). [Gilman et al.
