Thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTFA) is a chelating agent and inhibitor of cellular respiration.
Studies indicate that thenoyltrifluoroacetone is a potent inhibitor of carboxylesterase activity, in addition to its ability to inhibit mitochondrial complex II activity. Thenoyltrifluoroacetone has been shown to specifically inhibit electron transfer from Fe-S centre S-3 (cluster 3) of succinate dehydrogenase to oxidized
ubiquinone and ubisemiquinone pairs.
