CAS 373-61-5 — Boron trifluoride-acetic acid complex
Boron trifluoride-acetic acid complex is a coordination compound formed by boron trifluoride and acetic acid, widely used as a strong Lewis acid catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly for Friedel-Crafts reactions, esterifications, and polymerizations. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong acetic acid odor. This chemical has a CAS number of 373-61-5, with the molecular formula BF3 · 2CH3COOH and a molecular weight of 187.86 g/mol. It is stored at ambient conditions but requires careful handling due to its corrosive and reactive nature, as indicated by its "Danger" signal word. Molekula supplies Boron trifluoride-acetic acid complex from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
