Silver Trifluoroacetate
Product Introduction
The compound corresponding to CAS No. 2966-50-9 is Silver Trifluoroacetate, with a molecular formula of C₂AgF₃O₂ and a molecular weight of 220.88 g/mol. The compound is a light beige to gray crystalline powder, odorless, sensitive to humidity, and needs to be sealed for storage.
The melting point of Silver Trifluoroacetate is 257–260°C (decomposition), and it is easily soluble in water and polar solvents such as methanol and ethanol, but insoluble in non-polar solvents such as n-hexane. Its aqueous solution is weakly acidic and easily deliquesces in the air. In addition, it is soluble in ether (750 mL dissolves 33.5 g), benzene (30 mL dissolves 1.9 g) and trifluoroacetic acid (solubility 15.2% at 30°C), and it also has a certain solubility in toluene and xylene.

Properties And Uses
Properties：
1. Silver trifluoroacetate is a white crystalline solid with a strong pungent odor.
2. It is soluble in organic solvents and water, but its solubility in water is relatively low.
3. It is stable in air, but will deliquesce under conditions of high humidity.
Uses：
Organic Synthesis Catalysis:
Silver Trifluoroacetate is used as a Lewis acid catalyst for the synthesis of hydrazones and the preparation of trifluoroacetate compounds (such as triethylsilyl trifluoroacetate and triphenylmethyl trifluoroacetate).
Combined with iodine, it can promote aromatic ring iodination and regioselective alkylation reactions, such as the preparation of 4-iodoveratrole from veratrole.
Synthesis of Fluorinated Compounds:
As a silver salt of trifluoroacetic acid, it can be used to introduce trifluoromethyl groups to synthesize fluorinated drugs or optoelectronic materials.
Precautions
Irritation: Severe irritation to skin and eyes (H315, H319), may cause silver deposition, wear gloves and goggles during operation, and operate in a fume hood.
Environmental risks: Highly toxic to aquatic organisms (H400), avoid release to the environment.
Storage conditions: Store in a cool and dry place (≤30℃) after sealing, away from light and moisture, and away from strong oxidants.
