Application

PFPA acylates amines, amino acids and other compounds. PFPA derivatives are highly volatile; used in GC separation
Pentafluoropropionic anhydride can be used to synthesize lithium 4,5-dicyano-2-(pentafluoroethyl)imidazole, a novel imidazole-derived salt with potential application as an electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries. It can also be used to prepare 1.3- bis(pentafluoropropionyl)azulene.

A new analytical method that combines on-line derivatization-extraction and gas-liquid chromatography for the determination of N-methylcarbamates is reported. The hydrolysis products of N-methylcarbamates (phenols) are derivatized and extracted in a continuous fashion using pentafluoropropionic anhydride (derivatizing reagent) in n-hexane as
