General description

Silver trifluoroacetate is a versatile reagent used in organic synthetic reactions, including acylation, alkylation, and cyclization reactions. It is also used to fabricate silver nanomaterials.

Application

Silver trifluoroacetate can be used:
  • As a precursor to synthesize silver nanoparticles.
  • As a starting material to fabricate conducting silver networks with high transmittance and low resistance via a polymer-assisted electrospinning technique.
  • As a reagent to prepare polynuclear luminescent complexes.
  • As a bifunctional reagent for oxidative carbonylative [4 + 1] annulation of aromatic acid.
