In organic chemistry, triflate (systematic name: trifluoromethanesulfonate), is a functional group with the formula R−OSO 2 CF 3 and structure R−O−S(=O) 2 −CF 3. The triflate group is often represented by −OTf, as opposed to −Tf, which is the triflyl group, R−SO 2 CF 3. For example, n-butyl triflate can be written as CH 3 CH 2 CH ...
Scandium trifluoromethanesulfonate, commonly called scandium triflate, is a chemical compound with formula Sc(SO 3 CF 3) 3, a salt consisting of scandium cations Sc 3+ and triflate SO 3 CF − 3 anions. Scandium triflate is used as a reagent in organic chemistry as a Lewis acid. [1]
Lanthanide triflates are proposed for Friedel-Crafts acylations and alkylations, which are often carried out with AlCl 3 as the catalyst in an organic solvent. The nature of the Friedel-Craft reaction, especially the acylation, forces the AlCl 3 to irreversibly complex with any oxygen-containing group in the product, with the only way of decomplexing it being to destroy the AlCl 3 part with ...
Silver trifluoromethanesulfonate, or silver triflate is the triflate (CF 3 SO 3 −) salt of Ag +. It is a white or colorless solid that is soluble in water and some organic solvents including, benzene. It is a reagent used in the synthesis of organic and inorganic triflates.
Trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOTf) is an organosilicon compound with the formula (CH 3) 3 SiO 3 SCF 3. It is a colorless moisture-sensitive liquid. It is the trifluoromethanesulfonate derivative of trimethylsilyl. [1] It is mainly used to activate ketones and aldehydes in organic synthesis.
Hf(OTf) 4 accelerated the reaction rate under milder conditions with only 0.1 mol% catalyst loading. For example, Hf(OTf) 4 catalyzes the reaction between benzaldehyde and 2.0 equiv. of either ethanethiol or 1.0 equiv. of propane-1,3,-dithiol readily in quantitative yield. Hf(OTf) 4 catalyzed thioacetalization of benzaldehyde
Trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride, also known as triflic anhydride, is the chemical compound with the formula (CF 3 SO 2) 2 O. It is the acid anhydride derived from triflic acid . This compound is a strong electrophile , useful for introducing the triflyl group , CF 3 SO 2 .
Triflic acid, the short name for trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, TFMS, TFSA, HOTf or TfOH, is a sulfonic acid with the chemical formula CF 3 SO 3 H. It is one of the strongest known acids. Triflic acid is mainly used in research as a catalyst for esterification. [2] [3] It is a hygroscopic, colorless, slightly viscous liquid and is soluble in ...
