CAS 1109-15-5: Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane

Description: Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, with the CAS number 1109-15-5, is an organoboron compound characterized by its three pentafluorophenyl groups attached to a central boron atom. This compound is notable for its high stability and low reactivity, primarily due to the strong electron-withdrawing effects of the pentafluorophenyl groups, which enhance its Lewis acidity. It is typically a white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran. Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane is often used in organic synthesis and catalysis, particularly in reactions involving nucleophiles, due to its ability to activate substrates through coordination. Additionally, it has applications in materials science, particularly in the development of boron-containing polymers and as a precursor for other boron compounds. Its unique electronic properties make it a subject of interest in various fields, including medicinal chemistry and materials science. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it can be hazardous in concentrated forms.
