C2H3F3
C2H3F3 is the molecular formula for two constitutional isomers of difluorinated ethane: 1,1,1-trifluoroethane, with the structure CF3-CH3, and 1,1,2-trifluoroethane, with the structure CHF2-CH2F. Both have two carbon atoms connected by a single bond, and three fluorine atoms and three hydrogen atoms occupying the remaining valences.
In terms of composition, the two isomers differ in how the fluorine atoms are distributed across the
Physically, compounds with this formula are typically colorless and exist as gases or volatile liquids at room
Uses and handling are influenced by environmental and safety considerations. Fluorinated ethanes have historical use as
