Aceticacid, trifluoro- - Comparision with trichloroacetic acid
Trifluoroacetic acid and trichloroacetic acid are both carboxylic acids, but they differ in acidity.
Trifluoroacetic acid (CF3COOH) is a stronger acid with a pKa value of about 0.23-0.27. Due to the presence of three fluorine atoms, trifluoroacetic acid has lower electron density, which increases its polarity and overall acidity.
Trichloroacetic acid (CCl3COOH) has a pKa value of approximately 0.92, making it weaker in comparison to trifluoroacetic acid. With three chlorine atoms, trichloroacetic acid has higher electron density, resulting in reduced polarity and weaker acidity.
In summary, trifluoroacetic acid is stronger in acidity compared to trichloroacetic acid.

Aceticacid, trifluoro- - mobile phase
The main functions of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in the mobile phase include:
Adjusting pH: Trifluoroacetic acid is a strong acid that can regulate the pH value of the eluent, which is crucial for peptide separation as the stability of peptides is usually related to their pI.
Enhanced separation efficiency: As an ion pair reagent, trifluoroacetic acid can interact with peptides, enhance separation efficiency, improve peak shape, and overcome peak broadening and tailing issues.
Improving mass spectrometry analysis: In the experiment of separating peptides and proteins by reverse phase chromatography, the use of trifluoroacetic acid as an ion pair reagent is a common method. It can remain on the surface of the reverse phase stationary phase and interact with peptides and column beds, which helps optimize separation conditions.
Adjusting selectivity: By changing the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid, the selectivity of peptides on reverse phase chromatography can be finely adjusted, which is very beneficial for optimizing separation conditions and increasing the information content of complex chromatographic analysis.
Inhibition of ion production: The mobile phase containing trifluoroacetic acid has an inhibitory effect on ion production, which may to some extent reduce the sensitivity and analytical quality of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry technology. The post column addition technique can partially overcome this inhibitory effect, but it can complicate the chromatographic system. Reducing the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid can eliminate this inhibitory effect, but it can also lead to a decrease in the quality of chromatographic analysis.
The concentration of trifluoroacetic acid is usually not more than 0.5%, as it can make the pH of water reach below 2, with high ion strength and certain ion pairing effects.

| Overview | trifluoroacetic acid (TFA molecular formula: CF3COOH) alias trifluoroacetic acid, colorless volatile fuming liquid, odor similar to acetic acid, hygroscopic and irritating odor. Affected by the electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group, it is strongly acidic, which is ten thousand times stronger than acetic acid. Melting Point -15.2 °c, boiling point 72.4 °c, density 1.5351g/cm3 (1 °c). It is miscible with water, fluorinated hydrocarbons, methanol, ethanol, diethyl ether, acetone, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and hexane, and can partially dissolve carbon disulfide and more than six carbon alkanes. It is an excellent solvent for proteins and polyesters. It is also an excellent solvent for organic reactions, and can obtain results that are difficult to obtain in general solvents. For example, when quinoline is catalytically hydrogenated in general solvents, the pyridine ring is preferentially hydrogenated, however, the benzene ring is preferentially hydrogenated in trifluoroacetic acid. Trifluoroacetic acid is decomposed into fluorides and carbon dioxide in the presence of aniline. Can be reduced by sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride to trifluoroacetaldehyde and trifluoroethanol. It is stable above 205 ° C., and Ester and amide derivatives are easy to hydrolyze, so that saccharides, amino acids and peptide derivatives can be prepared in the form of acid or anhydride. It is easily dehydrated into trifluoroacetic anhydride by the action of phosphorus pentoxide. Trifluoroacetic acid is an important fat fluorine-containing intermediate. Because of the special structure of trifluoromethyl group, it has different properties from other alcohols, and can participate in a variety of organic synthesis reactions, especially for the synthesis of fluorine-containing pharmaceuticals, pesticides and dyes and other fields, the demand at home and abroad is increasing, and it has become one of the important intermediates of fluorine-containing fine chemicals. |

Trifluoroacetic acid in the mobile phase improves peak shape, overcomes peak spread and tailing problems by interacting with the hydrophobically bonded phase and residual polar surfaces in multiple modes. Trifluoroacetic acid is superior to other ionic modifiers because it is readily volatile and can be conveniently removed from the prepared samples. Trifluoroacetic acid, on the other hand, has a UV maximum absorption of less than 200nm, which interferes little with the detection of the polypeptide at low wavelengths. |
| Application in HPLC | in Reversed-phase chromatographic separation of peptides and proteins, trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was used as an ion-pair reagent is a common means. Trifluoroacetic acid in the mobile phase improves peak shape, overcomes peak spread and tailing problems by interacting with the hydrophobically bonded phase and residual polar surfaces in multiple modes. Trifluoroacetic acid binds to positive charges and polar groups on the polypeptide to reduce the retention of polarity and brings the polypeptide back to the hydrophobic, inverted surface. In the same manner, the polar surface remaining on the stationary phase was shielded by trifluoroacetic acid. The behavior of trifluoroacetic acid can be understood as its retention on the surface of the reversed phase stationary phase while interacting with the polypeptide and the column bed. Trifluoroacetic acid is superior to other ionic modifiers because it is readily volatile and can be conveniently removed from the prepared samples. Trifluoroacetic acid, on the other hand, has a UV maximum absorption of less than 200nm, which interferes little with the detection of the polypeptide at low wavelengths. By varying the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid, the selectivity of the polypeptide on reverse phase chromatography can be finely adjusted. This effect is very useful for optimizing the separation conditions and increasing the amount of information in complex chromatographic analyses such as fingerprints of polypeptides. The concentration of trifluoroacetic acid in the mobile phase is generally 0.1%, at this concentration, most of the reverse phase chromatography can produce a good peak shape, when the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid is much lower than this level, the broadening and tailing of the peaks becomes apparent. Trifluoroacetic acid in the separation of proteins and other macromolecules when the effect is very good, in actual use, we are difficult to control the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid, because it is volatile substances, if the configuration time is long, it will volatilize some, changing the concentration. After preparation, it must be closed to prevent volatilization. |
