Chemical Properties
light beige crystalline powder
Uses
Silver Trifluoromethanesulfonate is used to generate cationic rhodium catalysts from chlororhodium complexes for the hydrophosphination of acetylenes. It is also employed as a catalyst for the preparation of silyl ethers by hydrosilylation of aldehydes.
General Description
Silver trifluoromethanesulfonate
p-complexes of monoenes, dienes, trienes, monoynes and diynes have been prepared. It reacts with 2-fluoro- and 3-fluoro-4-alkoxystilbazoles to afford the mesomorphic complexes. Iodine monochloride/AgOTf constitutes an efficient promoter system for the
O-glycoside synthesis.
Purification Methods
Recrystallise it twice from hot CCl4 [Alo et al. J Chem Soc, Perkin Trans 1 805 1986]. Store it in the dark. [Beilstein 3 IV 34.]
