Potassium ethynyltrifluoroborate

Potassium ethynyltrifluoroborate is a cross-coupling agent. It is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of unsymmetrical azides, which are active natural products that act as radical scavengers and neuroprotective agents. The reaction of potassium ethynyltrifluoroborate with azides is a rapid and highly efficient method for the preparation of these compounds. Potassium ethynyltrifluoroborate reacts with azides to form triazoles, which are reactive intermediates that can be converted into other functional groups by various methods such as halogenation or hydroxamic acid formation.
