Industrial Uses

1. Performance Chemicals

  • Fluorination of organic compounds: Triethylamine trihydrofluoride acts as a mild and selective fluorinating agent, enabling the introduction of fluorine into various organic molecules. 
  • Ring-opening fluorination of epoxides: It facilitates the ring-opening of epoxides with fluoride, leading to the formation of fluorohydrins or other fluorinated products. 
  • Desilylation reactions: It can selectively cleave silicon-based protecting groups (e.g., silyl ethers) from organic molecules, which is useful in carbohydrate and nucleotide chemistry.
  • Synthesis of perfluoroalkyl fluorophosphates: It's used in the synthesis of these compounds, which are precursors for phosphorus-containing compounds.
