What are the physical and chemical properties of TIPA (CAS: 144970-30-9)?

TIPA (1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoropropan-2-ol) is a colorless and odorless liquid with a molecular weight of approximately 166.07 g/mol. It has a high solubility in common organic solvents but is practically insoluble in water. TIPA is relatively stable in air and does not readily react with common reagents, but it can hydrolyze slowly over time to form hexafluoroisopropanol. It exists as a crystalline solid at low temperatures and has a specific gravity of about 1.49 at 20°C.
