General description
Difluoroaceticacid is a monocarboxylic acid and an organofluorine compound. Difluoroaceticacid is easy-to-handle reagent, useful for obtaining difluoromethyl substituents. Difluoroacetic acid can be used asdifluoromethylating reagent for the direct C−H difluoromethylation ofheteroaromatic compounds.
Application
Used in the preparation of 2-difluoromethylbenzimidazoles, -oxazoles and -thiazoles from ortho-substituted anilines mediated by triphenylphoshine.

Our experiments were carried out in normal and streptozotocin-diabetic rats. The effects of sodium difluoroacetate (DFA) at the dose of 40 mg/kg daily were studied on the blood and retinal lactate levels; these effects were compared to those of an

The biotransformation and the hepato- and nephrotoxicity of the mercapturic acids (N-acetyl-1-cysteine S-conjugates) of three structurally related 2,2-difluoroethylenes were investigated in vivo in the rat. All mercapturic acids appeared to cause nephrotoxicity, without any measureable effect on the liver. The
