Description

It is employed as a valuable reagent for trifluoromethylation of electrophilic substrates. It is also use an the nucleophilic addition of the trifluoromethyl group to aldehydes and ketones. It generates trifluoromethide with catalytic amounts of F- (TBAF or CsF) and reacts with carbonyl compounds to produce trifluoromethylated alcohols.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
