정의
ChEBI: Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is a one-carbon compound that is methanesulfonic acid in which the hydrogens attached to the methyl carbon have been replaced by fluorines. It is a one-carbon compound and a perfluoroalkanesulfonic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a triflate.
일반 설명
Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is a strong organic acid. It can be prepared by reacting bis(trifluoromethylthio)mercury with H2O2. On mixing with HNO3, it affords a nitrating reagent (a nitronium salt). This reagent is useful for the nitration of aromatic compounds. Its dissociation in various organic solvents has been studied.
Safety Profile
A corrosive irritant to
the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. A
strong acid. Violent reaction with acyl
chlorides or aromatic hydrocarbons evolves
toxic hydrogen chloride gas. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Fand
SOx. See also FLUORIDES.
