Ethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (CAS: 2697-50-1) is a potent alkylating reagent with molecular formula C3H5F3O3S. It is industrially synthesized via the reaction of ethanol with triflic anhydride under controlled conditions, serving as a critical source for introducing triflate groups in organic synthesis.
Strictly store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture. Use appropriate PPE including goggles and gloves due to severe corrosivity and lachrymatory effects. Do not use in clinical settings without specialized containment protocols.
