Trifluoromethanesulfonimide is a strong acid, used in the preparation of highly efficient Lewis acid catalysts.

Trifluoromethanesulfonimide may be used in the following studies:
As catalyst during the polymerization of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane in the presence of hexamethyldisiloxane.
As efficient catalyst in the synthesis of various non-reducing disaccharides, via ketopyranosylation of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-1-C-methyl-D-hexopyranoses.
Starting material for preparing the N-fluoro derivative, a reactive fluorinating agent.
As a component of solid polymer electrolytes.
