TRIFLUOROACETIC ACID is a strong acid; attacks many metals [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980. p. 935]. A 30% solution of hydrogen peroxide in trifluoroacetic acid is often used to destructively oxidize aromatic rings in preference to the side chains. Explosions have occurred, if the excess peroxide is not catalytically destroyed, prior to removal of solvent, [Tetrahedron Lett., 1977, 1703-1704]. The reduction of amides of trifluoroacetic acid with lithium aluminum hydride are dangerous at all phases of the process, explosions have occurred, [Chem. Eng. News, 1955, 33, 1368].

Decomposes on contact with hot surfaces or flames. This produces toxic fumes. The substance is a medium strong acid. Reacts violently with strong bases, reducing agents and oxidants. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen fluoride. Attacks many metals. This produces flammable/explosive gas (hydrogen - see ICSC 0001). Attacks some forms of rubber.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 3(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that trifluoroacetic acid is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of trifluoroacetic acid is 0.52(3), indicating that this compound will primarily exist in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). Volatilization of trifluoroacetic acid from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process as anions do not volatilize(SRC). Trifluoroacetic acid is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 110 mm Hg(5). Certain oxic conditions do suggest that biodegradation is possible in soil; however, one of the products of degradation is fluoroform, a potential ozone-depleting compound with much longer atmospheric persistence than the parent compound(6).

TERRESTRIAL FATE: In a throughput study at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in New Hampshire, the fate of trifluoroacetic acid within northern hardwood forest soils is suggested as follows: loss via soil water flow, 40-80%; soil retention, 5-30%; and plant uptake, 50-35%. These results indicate that transport of this compound is controlled primarily by hydrologic processes in upland forest ecosystems(1).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 3(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that trifluoroacetic acid is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). A pKa of 0.52(3) indicates trifluoroacetic acid will exist almost entirely in the anion form at pH values of 5 to 9 and therefore volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of 0.50(6) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Trifluoroacetic acid was not biodegraded during a year-long study using laboratory aquatic microcosms and ecosystem sediment-water systems(8). Certain oxic conditions do suggest that biodegradation is possible in soil; trifluoroacetic acid degraded 9, 2.4, 1.9 and 25.5%, respectively, O2 as electron acceptor(9).

AQUATIC FATE: Trifluoroacetic acid is extremely persistent in water, showing no degradation during a year-long study using field aquatic microcosms and ecosystem sediment-water systems(1). Observations of the field ponds showed a reduction of trifluoroacetic acid over the winter months with levels rising again toward spring. Reaction with hydroxyl radicals in water is slow, with an estimated half-life of over 100 years(1). Trifluoroacetic acid was added to aquatic microcosms at concentrations of 10, 100, 300 and 1000 ug/L; a concentration of 20 ug/mL was added to laboratory sediment microcosms(1).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), trifluoroacetic acid, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 110 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase trifluoroacetic acid is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 31 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 5.2X10-13 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). Trifluoroacetic acid does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(4).

Occupational hepatotoxin - Secondary hepatotoxins: the potential for toxic effect in the occupational setting is based on cases of poisoning by human ingestion or animal experimentation.；Dermatotoxin - Skin burns.；Toxic Pneumonitis - Inflammation of the lungs induced by inhalation of metal fumes or toxic gases and vapors.

Cough. Sore throat. Burning sensation. Laboured breathing.

Redness. Pain. Serious skin burns.

Redness. Pain. Severe deep burns.

Burning sensation in the throat and chest. Abdominal pain. Shock or collapse.

Data suggest that the total trifluoroacetic acid in air and precipitation exceeds the formation potential of currently known sources. Trifluoroacetic acid in atmosphere and rain is regionally associated with industrial or population density and that other unresolved sources must contribute to the present concentrations(1).

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of trifluoroacetic acid can be estimated to be 3(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that trifluoroacetic acid is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of trifluoroacetic acid is 0.52(3), indicating that this compound will primarily exist in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). In a throughput study at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in New Hampshire, calculated outflows of trifluoroacetic acid from the organic layers were 57% of the total added concentration of 0.81 g/sq m(5). Thirty-five soils ranging from acrtic (Toolik Lake) and boreal (Bonanza Creek) sites in Alaska to a tropical rain forest in Puerto Rico (Luquillo) as well as soils from Lake Agissaz Peatlands, MN, near Found Lake, WI, Lysina and Pluhuv Bor, Czech Republic, Manaus, Balem, a Brazilian carton in Brazil, and the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, NH, were utilized to ascertain the fate of trifluoroacetic acid(6). Retention ranged from 25 to 260 umol/kg (60-0% of added trifluoroacetic acid) with 43 of 54 soils not retaining this compound strongly; soils with high organic matter and some mineral soils with high iron and aluminum content exhibited strong retention (20-60% of added trifluoroacetic acid); generally though, mineral soils exhibited less retention (0-15% of added trifluoroacetic acid)(6). The retention of trifluoroacetic acid increased with decreasing pH(6).

/ALTERNATIVE and IN VITRO TESTS/ To elucidate the possible role of biotransformation in 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HFC-245fa)-induced cardiotoxicity, the biotransformation of HFC-245fa was investigated in rats after inhalation exposure and in rat and human liver microsomes. ... In rat and human liver microsomes, HFC-245fa was biotransformed by a cytochrome P450-dependent reaction to trifluoroacetic acid and 3,3,3-trifluoropropanoic acid. ... In human liver microsomes, rates of trifluoroacetic acid formation ranged from 0 to 11.6 pmol/mg of protein/min.

AEROBIC: Trifluoroacetic acid was not biodegraded during a year-long study using laboratory aquatic microcosms and ecosystem sediment-water systems(1). Trifluoroacetic acid was not biodegraded by soil microorganisms, specifically Nocardia 398 and Pseudomonas 409, following 20 days incubation at a compound concentration of 0.1% in a 1 liter basal salts medium(2). Certain oxic conditions do suggest that biodegradation is possible in soil; trifluoroacetic acid at concns (incubation time, days) of 0.925 (27), 0.463 (27), 0.463 (15), and 0.185 (15) degraded 9, 2.4, 1.9 and 25.5%, respectively, with O2 as electron acceptor(3). One of the products of degradation is fluoroform, a potential ozone-depleting compound with much longer atmospheric persistence than the parent compound(3).

ANAEROBIC: Trifluoroacetic acid, concentration load ranging from 15 to 65 mg/L as fluoride, was found to be cometabolically degradable at low loading conditions using an engineered anaerobic reactor, set at a flow-rate of 9.5 L/day and a hydraulic retention time of 20 days pH of 7.2 and maintained at 35 °C, and following 90 weeks incubation(1). Using sediments from a San Francisco Bay salt marsh and a freshwater lake, 2-C14-labelled trifluoroacetic acid at starting concentrations in uM (incubation time, days) of 0.925 (27), 0.463 (27), 0.463 (15) and 0.185 (15), resulted in 0% conversion after 15 days with NO3 electron acceptor; starting concentrations in uM of 1.850 (12), 0.925 (18) and 0.463 (18) degraded 0, 0.1 and 12.2%, respectively, with SO4 as electron acceptor(2). Under anoxic conditions, one of the observed intermediates was monofluoroacetate, sold commercially as the poison "1080", which is highly toxic to microorganisms and mammals(3).

An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for trifluoroacetic acid(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 0.50(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
