Application

4,4,4-Trifluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione was used in the synthesis of series of NNO ketoimines bearing trifluoromethyl substituents via Schiff base condensation reaction. It was also used in mixed-ligand chelate extraction of trivalent lanthanides and as a ligand in the preparation of ternary lanthanide (Ln) complexes.

Mixed-ligand chelate extraction of trivalent lanthanides such as Nd(III), Eu(III) and Lu(III) into benzene with mixtures of 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione (HBFA) and bis-2-ethylhexyl sulphoxide (B2EHSO) or triphenylphosphine oxide (TPhPO) from thiocyanate solutions was investigated. The results demonstrate that these metal ions are
