Application

Tetrafluoroboric acid solution may be used as a catalyst for the hydration of aromatic haloalkynes to α-halomethyl ketones in the absence of metal catalysts. It may also be used the epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) ring opening step of fatty acids preparation.

General description

Tetrafluoroboric acid is used as a catalyst for the protection and deprotection reactions of various carbohydrates. It participates in the synthesis of 4-sulfonic acid phenyl diazonium tetrafluoroborate, which was required for the preparation of sulfonated graphene (SG).
