1-(2-Aminophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol is a cyanide ion receptor that binds to cyanide ions and converts them into less toxic thiocyanate ions. It is used as an analytical reagent for the detection of cyanide in samples. It also has been shown to be a sensing material for the detection of hydrogen sulfide.
