Product Description
Perfluoro(2-methyl-3-oxahexanoic) acid (HFPO-DA) is a persistent organic pollutant that can be used as a raw material and surface treatment agent in the production of fluorinated polymers and coatings.
Perfluoro(2-methyl-3-oxahexanoic) acid (CAS 13252-13-6) is a perfluoroalkyl ether carboxylic acid with the structure C4F₉OCHFCOOH. It is a shorter-chain analog of the above compound. It is used as a surfactant, a processing aid, and an analytical standard for environmental monitoring. It is a clear liquid.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Like other perfluorinated acids, it targets PPARalpha (EC50 ~50-100 uM) and disrupts lipid metabolism. It also binds to serum albumin. The ether oxygen may affect its bioaccumulation potential. It has no therapeutic target.
ln Vitro
In vitro, this compound (0.1-200 uM) activates PPARalpha in reporter assays with lower potency (EC50 ~50 uM) than longer-chain analogs. In HepG2 cells, it induces ACOX1 mRNA 2-3 fold at 200 uM. It is less cytotoxic (IC50 >500 uM). It does not inhibit gap junction intercellular communication at 100 uM.
ln Vivo
In a 28-day rat study, doses up to 100 mg/kg/day cause mild liver enlargement (20% increase) and no significant peroxisome proliferation. The NOAEL is estimated at 30 mg/kg/day. It is less toxic than longer-chain PFAS. It is not a drug.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular PPARalpha binding assay (TR-FRET) as described for other PFAS; Ki ~30-60 uM. No specific new protocol.
Cell Assay
HepG2 cells treated with compound (10-500 uM) for 24 h show no significant cytotoxicity up to 500 uM (MTT >85%). qPCR shows weak induction of PPARalpha target genes (2-fold at 500 uM). No oxidative stress detected by DCFH-DA.
Animal Protocol
Cells: As above.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Rat 28-day study: Sprague-Dawley rats (n=10) given 0, 10, 30, 100 mg/kg/day by gavage. Endpoints: liver weight, serum lipids, histopathology. At 100 mg/kg, liver weight increased 20%, no other changes. NOAEL 30 mg/kg.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
After oral administration, absorption >80%. Plasma half-life in rats ~2-4 days (shorter than longer-chain PFAS). Excretion in urine and feces. No metabolism.

Additional Infomation
2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoro-2-(heptafluoropropoxy)propionic acid is a perfluorinated compound, a derivative of 2-propoxyvalerate, in which all 11 hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms are replaced by fluorine atoms. For many years, it has been used as a substitute for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in the fluoropolymer industry. However, its widespread distribution in the environment, high bioaccumulation, and human exposure risks have raised significant concerns, particularly regarding its potential toxicity and health risks, which remain largely unknown. It is a perfluorinated compound, a monocarboxylic acid, and an ether.
H302, H315, H319, H335, H360 (suspected), H412. Lower toxicity than long-chain PFAS but still hazardous.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 3.0298 mL 15.1492 mL 30.2984 mL
5 mM 0.6060 mL 3.0298 mL 6.0597 mL
10 mM 0.3030 mL 1.5149 mL 3.0298 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
