  HHMI Lab Safety: LCSS: TRIFLUOROACETIC ACID   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Trifluoroacetic acid has not been found to be carcinogenic or to show reproductive or developmental toxicity in humans.
Trifluoroacetic acid should be handled in the laboratory using the "basic prudent practices" described in Chapter 5.C. In particular, trifluoroacetic acid should be stored in an acid cabinet away from other classes of compounds.
Trifluoroacetic acid and waste material containing this substance should be placed in an appropriate container, clearly labeled, and handled according to your institution's waste disposal guidelines.

Attempts to prepare lysergic acid amides amides by the usual methods of preparing amides, such as reacting an amine with lysergic acid chloride or with ester of lysergic acid, have been unsuccessful.
It appears that one molecule of the anhydride associates with or favors an ionic adduct with one molecule of the lysergic which contains a basic nitrogen atom and that it is the adduct which reacts with a second molecule of trifluoroacetic anhydride to form the mixed anhydride along with one molecule of trifluoroacetic acid.
The di-iso-lysergic acid N,N-diethyl amide which remains absorbed on the alumia column as the second fluroescent zone is removed from the column by elution with chloroform.

 Atmospheric Production and Fate of Trifluoroacetic Acid
Trifluoroacetic acid is widely used in the chemical industry in processes where it is either consumed or becomes part of a chemical waste stream.
A generalized scheme for the atmospheric oxidation of a haloalkane that could degrade to give trifluoroacetic acid is given in Figure 6.4.
To assess the potential for a halocarbon to produce trifluoroacetic acid, it is necessary to quantify the yield of trifluoroacetyl halide in its gas phase oxidation mechanism.

During an investigation of solvent effects on the anomeric equilibria of 2-acetomido-2-deoxyhexoses, we have observed a novel, reversible reaction of these sugars with trifluoroacetic acid that is described herein.
Evaporation of the trifluoroacetic acid in vacuo yielded an unstable oil that showed the presence of acetamido and trifluoroacetyl groups (Vco 1680 1795 cm-1).

 Aromatic Formylation with HMTA and TFA - [www.rhodium.ws]
When the hexamethylenetetramine is used in conjunction with trifluoroacetic acid, a variety of aromatic compounds, including simple hydrocarbons, can be converted to imine products which are transformed to the aryl aldehydes on hydrolysis (eq 1).
Thus, a mixture of 12.2 g of 2,6-xylenol (100 mmol), 14.0 g of hexamethylenetetramine (100 mmol), and 150 ml of trifluoroacetic acid was heated at reflux (83-90°C) for 12 hr.
2 (15%) were isolated after evaporation of the acid and fractional crystallization of the residue from acetonitrile-ether.

If trichloroacetic acid isn't possible, being able to synthesize monochloroacetic acid without having to bother with P / Cl2 would also be an achievement.
Methyl chloroacetate is made from monochloroacetic acid and can be used with KF to form methyl fluoroacetate, which can be used to prepare fluoroacetic salts and the free acid.
You can apparently start with monochloracetic acid and fluorinate it to trifluoroacetyl fluoride, which can be hydrolyzed to give trifluoroacetic acid.

 Choice of Buffer for the Analysis of Basic Peptides in Reversed-Phase HPLC - LCGC
Volatile buffers-additives such as formic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, or heptafluorobutyric acid are used because they do not lead to contamination of the source, which occurs with involatile inorganic buffers such as phosphate.
One of the reasons for this finding is the possibility of ion-pairing between charged peptides and trifluoroacetic acid, which contributes to this loss of sensitivity.
In a later paper (3), the same group recommended the use of trifluoroacetic acid due to the relatively poor resolution of peptides obtained with formic acid.

These two molecules were chosen to look at different electrostatic surfaces because they have similar structure but different electrostatic properties.
Trifluoroacetic acid has more evenly distributed charge than acetic acid because the fluorine is more negative and pulls electros toward it more than hydrogen.
Notice the difference in electrostatic potential between acetic acid and trifluoroacetic acid.
