General description

N-Methyl-bis-heptafluorobutyramide is an acylation reagent for GC/MS derivatization with benefits:
  • Improves stability of compounds by protecting unstable groups.
  • It may confer volatility on substances such as carbohydrates or amino acids, which have so many polar groups that they are non-volatile and normally decompose on heating.
  • It assists in separations not possible with underivatized compounds.
  • Compounds are detectable at very low levels with an ECD.

Other Notes

Derivatizing agent for amines, alcohols and thiols, forming neutral butyramide
