Description

Boron trifluoride-tetrahydrofuran complex is used as a polymerization initiator and as a dopant in the semiconductor industry. It serves as a reagent for deoxofluorination of alcohols and carbonyls. Further, it is used in the synthesis of methacrylate-PEG-methacrylate-boron trifluoride self-doped gel polymer electrolytes and hydroboration-oxidation of divinylferrocene. In addition to this, it is used as a reagent for the preparation of NK1 receptor antagonists, complex polyketide natural products and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
