Trityl tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate is a specialized organoboron salt used primarily as a non-coordinating counterion in advanced catalysis. Synthesized via metathesis reactions involving trityl cations and borate anions, it stabilizes highly reactive cationic species. The molecular formula is C55H29B F20, with CAS No. 17684-83-4.
Store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below -20°C to prevent hydrolysis. Strict moisture exclusion is required during handling due to air sensitivity. Personal protective equipment including respirators and chemical-resistant gloves must be worn to avoid respiratory or dermal exposure.
