Pentafluoropropionic acid is commonly employed as a derivatizing agent in GC-MS analysis to enhance volatility and detection sensitivity of analytes. It serves as a precursor for fluorinated surfactants and specialty polymers due to its hydrophobic properties. In organic synthesis, PFPrA is utilized as a strong acid catalyst or building block for perfluorinated compounds. Its applications extend to pharmaceutical intermediates and corrosion inhibitors.
