General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. This catalyst facilitates anion transfer between aqueous and organic phases in biphasic reactions. It enables solvent-efficient synthesis while improving operational safety and maintaining high selectivity. Click here for more information.

Application

  • Anion-capped metallohost for guest exchange: A study on the controlled release and uptake of guests in metallohosts, which used tetrabutylammonium trifluoromethanesulfonate as a precursor.(Sakata et al., 2017).
  • Deep eutectic solvents: Research on the properties of deep eutectic solvents formed by tetrabutylammonium trifluoromethanesulfonate and succinonitrile, exploring their potential applications (Yang et al., 2019).
  • Electrochemical studies: Investigation of the electrochemical reduction of CO2 in ionic liquid/organic solvent mixtures using tetrabutylammonium trifluoromethanesulfonate at gold electrodes (Yang et al., 2016).
