Boron trifluoride acetonitrile complex Usage And Synthesis

Application

Boron trifluoride complexes are highly active catalysts that can be used in a variety of organic synthesis reactions. In particular, in the synthesis of cephalosporin antibacterial drugs, the introduction of boron trifluoride complexes not only shortens the reaction time of the original products but also significantly increases their yield.

Chemical Properties

Boron trifluoride acetonitrile complex is a colorless or light yellow transparent liquid, easily soluble in water, and miscible in various organic solvents such as alcohol and ether. It is mainly used as a catalyst for organic reactions. It is an important raw material for the preparation of boron halide, elemental boron, borane, sodium borohydride and other borides.

reaction suitability

core: boron
reagent type: Lewis acid
reagent type: catalyst

Synthesis

Boron trifluoride acetonitrile complex can be prepared by 20% oleum, boron anhydride and fluorite(9:1:3) were stirred at 130℃ and then poured into acetonitrile to give the complexation.
