Product Description
Caesium fluoride, anhydrous (CAS Number: 13400-13-0) is an alkaline metal and halogen.
It is used as a reagent in a number of processes such as:
- Nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions (SNAr)
- The formation of flurovinylic compounds through nucleophilic fluorination of alkynyliodonium salts
- Synthesis of alcohols through hydrolysis of alkyl silyl ethers
- For the synthesis of single-crystal Dion-Jacobson phase (CsLaTa2O7)
- As a base in the Suzuki carbonylative coupling of enol triflates with vinyl boronic acids
- In the preparation of building blocks for synthesis of fluoroallylic compounds
Caesium flouride is often used in organic chemistry as a base because of its low nucleophilicity. In organic synthesis, it is used for desilylation reactions. It is a catalyst for the promotion of Knoevenegal condensation.
It finds applications in infrared spectroscopy and in the synthesis of first CNS-active carborane as a P2X7 receptor antagonist.
