white to off-white crystalline powder or needles
N-Fluoropyridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate is used as a reagent for electrophilic fluorination and for a review of electrophilic N-F fluorinating agents. It is also used as a reactant for Pd-catalyzed arylation reactions and as a fluorination agent.
N-fluoropyridinium triflate salts offer a tunable fluorinating system; electronic nature of the substituents on the ring dictates the potency and selectivity of the reagent. Efficient fluorination of various aromatics, carbanions, vinyl esters, alkyls, and enamines.
General purpose electrophilic fluorinating reagent.4
