In organic chemistry, the triflyl group (systematic name: trifluoromethanesulfonyl group) is a functional group with the formula R−SO 2 CF 3 and structure R−S(=O) 2 −CF 3. The triflyl group is often represented by –Tf. The related triflate group (trifluoromethanesulfonate) has the formula R−OSO 2 CF 3, and is represented by –OTf. [1]
Ditolylguanidine is a sigma receptor agonist. [1] It is somewhat [2] selective for sigma receptors, but non-selective between the two sigma receptor subtypes, binding to both σ1 and σ2 with equal affinity. [3] It has neuroprotective [4] and antidepressant effects, [5] and potentiates the effects of NMDA antagonists. [6]
Its pK a value in water cannot be accurately determined but in acetonitrile it has been estimated as −0.10 and in 1,2-dichloroethane −12.3 (relative to the pK a value of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (picric acid), anchored to zero to crudely approximate the aqueous pK a scale [2]), making it more acidic than triflic acid (pK a MeCN = 0.70, pK a DCE ...
The trifluoromethyl group is a functional group that has the formula-CF 3. The naming of is group is derived from the methyl group (which has the formula -CH 3), by replacing each hydrogen atom by a fluorine atom. Some common examples are trifluoromethane H– CF 3, 1,1,1-trifluoroethane H 3 C – CF 3, and hexafluoroacetone F 3 C –CO– CF 3.
For example, n-butyl triflate can be written as CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OTf. The corresponding triflate anion , CF 3 SO − 3 , is an extremely stable polyatomic ion ; this comes from the fact that triflic acid ( CF 3 SO 3 H ) is a superacid ; i.e. it is more acidic than pure sulfuric acid , already one of the strongest acids known.
In this reaction benzotrichloride was reacted with SbF 3 to form PhCF 2 Cl and PhCF 3. In the 1930s Kinetic Chemicals and IG Farben replaced SbF 3 with HF. The McLoughlin-Thrower reaction (1968) is an early coupling reaction using iodofluoroalkanes, iodoaromatic compounds and copper. [8]
Triflidic acid (IUPAC name: tris[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]methane, abbreviated formula: Tf 3 CH) is an organic superacid. It is one of the strongest known carbon acids and is among the strongest Brønsted acids in general, with an acidity exceeded only by the carborane acids .
Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)aniline is the organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 N(SO 2 CF 3) 2. [1] It is a white solid. The compound is used to install the triflyl group (SO 2 CF 3). Its behavior is akin to that of triflic anhydride, but milder.
