Thermo Scientific™ Pentafluorobenzyl Bromide (PFBBr) Alkylation Reagent
Shop All Thermo Scientific ProductsDescription
Derivatize carboxyl acids, phenols, and sulfonamides for electron-capture detection (ECD) GC analysis with the Thermo Scientific™ Pentafluorobenzyl Bromide (PFBBr) Alkylation Reagent. Reaction times are fast (∼20 minutes). Derivatives are highly EC-sensitive, making them useful in low-level determinations of fatty acids. PFBBr has been applied in analyzing trace organics in asphalts and as a fingerprinting technique for identifying asphalt pollutants found in surface waters.
