Sodium Triflinate (Cat No.:R019831) is a white, crystalline, organofluorine compound widely used as a trifluoromethylating agent in organic synthesis. It serves as a stable, easy-to-handle source of the trifluoromethyl (CF₃) group, which is valuable for introducing fluorinated motifs into pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty materials. Sodium triflinate is commonly employed in radical trifluoromethylation, oxidative coupling, and transition-metal-catalyzed reactions. Its high thermal stability and low volatility make it suitable for laboratory and industrial-scale processes. This reagent plays a key role in modern fluorine chemistry and late-stage functionalization strategies.
