General description
Boron trifluoride is a colourless gas which readily reacts with water to form hydrates. It has been widely used as catalyst for polymerizations, alkylations and condensation reactions. It is used as gas flux for internal soldering or brazing. It also finds application in being used in extinguisher for magnesium fires. Furthermore esterification by BF3-butanol helps in obtaining volatile derivatives of aliphatic acids such as hydroxyacids.
Application
It was used in extraction and derivatization of γ-hydroxybutyrate from human plasma or urine during a study to determine 1,4-butanediol and γ-hydroxybutyrate using capillary gas chromatography.
Other Notes
Reagent for butyl esters and trifluoroacetyl.

Butter oil is extracted from butter with hexane, using a rolling boil technique. The resulting 10% butter oil in hexane is converted to butyl esters, using butanol in place of methanol as specified in the official final action method, 28.063-28.067.
