Description
Application
Used as a catalyst in organic synthesis such as esterifications alkylations and acylation reactions like synthesizing tetrahydroxybenzophenone from pyrogallic acid and p-hydroxybenzoic acid.
Purpose
Acts as a milder safer alternative to anhydrous BF3 for promoting reactions requiring Lewis acid activation especially in protic media while enhancing selectivity and handling ease.
General Description
Boron Trifluoride-Methanol Complex (13-15% BF3 basis) is a colorless to amber liquid solution of BF3 in methanol. This Lewis acid complex (CAS 2802-68-8) has a density around 0.86-1.2 gmL boiling point near 59C at reduced pressure flash point about 16-52C and refractive index 1.328.
