CAS 910251-10-4: Potassium (tert-butoxymethyl)trifluoroborate

Potassium tert-butoxymethyltrifluoroborate is a strong base that is used to convert benzyl chloride to benzyl alcohol. This reaction can be achieved by coupling the two starting materials through a cross-coupling reaction. The use of potassium tert-butoxymethyltrifluoroborate as the base in this reaction provides an efficient, high yielding method for preparing benzyl alcohols from benzyl chlorides.
