%X Several trifluoromethanesulfonates of general structure ArCOCH2OTf were prepared and their suitability for use as derivatizing agents for the HPLC analysis of betaines was assessed. Four of them (Ar = 2&#8242;-naphthyl, 2&#8242;-fluorenyl, 6&#8242;-methoxynaphthacyl, and 2&#8242;-phenanthrenacyl) showed promise for use with UV and/or fluorescence detectors, with the last potentially the most promising.
