Product Description

Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (Cas Number 1493-13-6), also known as Triflic acid or Trifluoromethanesulphonic acid, is a sulfonic acid. It presents itself as a hygroscopic, colorless, slightly viscous liquid, and is soluble in polar solvents.

It is one of the strongest known acids, and the strongest Bronstedt acid available at industrial scale.

It is commonly used as a catalyst for many organic synthesis reactions - such as alkylation, esterification, etherification, acylation, isomerization, ethoxylation, cyclization, cationic rearrangement and more - and in cationic polymerization. It is also used for electronic applications such as liquid crystals and batteries, and chemical and pharmaceutical applications as sythesis intermediate.
