| | Boron trifluoride-methanol solution Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Boron trifluoride etherates: (compounded with
methyl ether) is moisture-sensitive, corrosive, flammable liquid. | | Chemical Properties | colorless to amber solution | | Uses | It was used in transmethylation of 1,2-Diacylglycerol (DAG) containing fractions which were purified using HPLC. It may be used to treat lipids during GC analysis done for determination of fatty acid methyl esters and dimethylacetals. | | Uses | Reagent for the GC analysis of ritalinic acid. Alternative to Cl2CHCO2H for synthesis of purine rich oligomers.
Lewis acid used in the preparation of geminal bis-peroxides from ketals and enol ethers with t-butyl hydroperoxide. Reagent used for the mild deacetylation of amines. | | Uses | Trifluoro(methanol)boron is a reagent used for the GC analysis of ritalinic acid. | | General Description | Boron trifluoride-methanol (BF-M) is an esterification reagent. BF-M is a powerful acidic catalyst for the esterification of the fatty acids. It easily cleaves acetylated dyes resulting in free amino groups. BF-M catalyzed trans esterification of vegetable oils forms biodiesel. | | Potential Exposure | Used as a catalyst. | | Shipping | Diethyl: UN2604 Boron trifluoride diethyl
etherate, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8—Corrosive material,
3—Flammable liquid. Dimethyl: UN2965 Boron trifluoride
dimethyl etherate, Hazard class: 4.3; Labels: 4.3—
Dangerous when wet, 8—Corrosive material, 3—
Flammable liquid. | | Incompatibilities | Reacts with air forming corrosive hydrogen
fluoride vapors. Incompatible with oxidizers (may
cause fire and explosion), water, steam or heat, forming
corrosive and flammable vapors. Peroxide containing etherate
reacts explosively with aluminum lithium hydride,
magnesium tetrahydroaluminate. Mixtures with phenol
react explosively with 1,3-butadiene. Presumed to form
explosive peroxides. |
