Application

Pentafluoropropionic anhydride was used:
  • in preparation of halogenated derivatives of phenolic acids, required for determination of some biologically important acids in cerebrospinal fluid
  • as derivatization reagent in detection of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline and 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline as endogenous amines from non-treated rat brain by GC-multiple ion detection
  • in simultaneous determination of the major metabolites of dopamine in rat striatum by gas-liquid chromatography

This is the first report to identify 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline and 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline as endogenous amines from non-treated rat brain. The detection was performed by coupled gas chromatography - multiple ion detection, using heptafluorobutyric anhydride and pentafluoropropionic anhydride as derivatizing reagents. These amines

We developed a sensitive method for determination of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) of different molecular weight (MW) in the human stratum corneum (SC) obtained by tape stripping. The analysis is based on derivatization with pentafluoropropionic anhydride (PFPA) and gas chromatography-electron capture
