Triflate salts are thermally very stable with melting points up to 350 °C for sodium, boron and silver salts especially in water-free form. They can be obtained directly from triflic acid and the metal hydroxide or metal carbonate in water.
Melting point: 286 °C (547 °F; 559 K) Solubility in water. soluble Hazards ... Silver trifluoromethanesulfonate, or silver triflate is the triflate ...
In the laboratory, triflic acid is useful in protonations because the conjugate base of triflic acid is nonnucleophilic. It is also used as an acidic titrant in nonaqueous acid-base titration because it behaves as a strong acid in many solvents (acetonitrile, acetic acid, etc.) where common mineral acids (such as HCl or H 2 SO 4) are only moderately strong.
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.
Methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, also commonly called methyl triflate and abbreviated MeOTf, is the organic compound with the formula CF 3 SO 2 OCH 3. It is a colourless liquid which finds use in organic chemistry as a powerful methylating agent. [ 2 ]
Hafnium(IV) triflate or hafnium trifluoromethansulfonate is a salt with the formula Hf(OSO 2 CF 3) 4, also written as Hf(OTf) 4. Hafnium triflate is used as an impure mixture as a catalyst. Hafnium (IV) has an ionic radius of intermediate range (Al < Ti < Hf < Zr < Sc < Ln) and has an oxophilic hard character typical of group IV metals.
Anhydrous boron trifluoride has a boiling point of −100.3 °C and a critical temperature of −12.3 °C, so that it can be stored as a refrigerated liquid only between those temperatures. Storage or transport vessels should be designed to withstand internal pressure, since a refrigeration system failure could cause pressures to rise to the ...
Zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate or zinc triflate is the zinc salt of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid.It is commonly used as a Lewis acid catalyst, e.g. in silylations. [1]A white powder, zinc triflate is commercially available, though some workers have experienced inconsistent results with zinc triflate from different sources.
