Questions And Answer

• Uses

  Trifluoroiodomethane is used as a gaseous fire suppression flooding agent for in-flight aircraft and electronic equipment fires. It is also an important raw material and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is involved in the rhodium-catalyzed alfa-trifluoromethylation of alfa,beta-unsaturatedketones. It plays an important role as catalyst in the enantioselective alfa -trifluoromethylation of aldehydes through photoredox organocatalysis using a readily available iridium photocatalyst.

• Reactions

  Trifluoromethyl iodide reacts with [AuMeL] to give [AuMe2(CF3)L] and [AuIL](L = PMe3 or PMe2Ph), or [Au(CF3)L] and Mel (L = PPh3), or a mixture of these products (L = PMePh2). In some cases reaction of [AuMe(PMe3)] with CF3I gives [AuMe(CF3)I(PMe3)]. Evidence is presented that the reactions proceed, at least in part, by a free-radical chain mechanism.
