In vitro metabolism studies on a series of 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl ethers have identified 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid as a significant metabolite possibly arising via oxidation of the benzylic position. The reactivity of the hydroxy- propyl units was demonstrated by the esterification of por- phyrazine derivatives with 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and toluene- p-sulfonic acid.

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.
