Description

Magnesium Trifluoromethanesulfonate (CAS No. 60871-83-2) is a high-purity, organometallic compound with the molecular formula C₂F₆MgO₆S₂, widely utilized in advanced chemical synthesis and catalysis. This white crystalline powder exhibits exceptional solubility in polar organic solvents, making it an ideal reagent for Lewis acid-catalyzed reactions, including Friedel-Crafts alkylations, acylations, and Diels-Alder cycloadditions. Its trifluoromethanesulfonate (triflate) anion enhances reactivity while maintaining stability under harsh conditions. Suitable for anhydrous environments, it is rigorously tested for moisture sensitivity and stored under inert conditions to ensure optimal performance. Each batch undergoes stringent QC protocols (HPLC, NMR) to guarantee ≥98% purity, meeting the demands of pharmaceutical, materials science, and electrochemical research applications.

Application

Magnesium trifluoromethanesulfonate serves as a potent Lewis acid catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly for electrophilic aromatic substitutions and polymerization reactions. It is employed in electrolyte formulations for magnesium-ion batteries due to its high anodic stability. Researchers also utilize it in the preparation of fluorinated polymers and as a precursor for advanced ceramic materials.
