Zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate is a catalyst that catalyses the reaction of amines with coumarin derivatives, producing an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It has been shown to have a redox potential that is higher than ferrocenecarboxylic acid. Zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate has been used in asymmetric synthesis, which involves substituting a hydrogen atom with another atom or group, and in salt metathesis, which is the process of forming new chemical compounds from reactants without using any energy. The zinc trifluoromethanesulfonate can also be activated by light or heat. This makes it possible for this compound to release the corrosive sulfur dioxide gas when heated to high temperatures, producing a synergic effect with other substances such as potassium permanganate (KMnO4).
