Uses of Ethyl heptafluorobutyrate: it is used to produce other chemicals. For example, it can react with acetic acid ethyl ester to get 4,4,5,5,6,6,6-Heptafluoro-3-oxo-hexanoic acid ethyl ester. The reaction occurs with reagents sodium ethylate and diethyl ether.

When you are dealing with this chemical, you should be very careful. This chemical is inflammation to the skin, eyes and respiratory system or other mucous membranes. And it may catch fire in contact with air, only need brief contact with an ignition source and have a very low flash point or evolve highly flammable gases in contact with water. Therefore, you should wear suitable protective clothing. What's more, you should keep away from sources of ignition. In case of contacting with eyes, you should rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
