Application
Aluminum trifluoromethanesulfonate (aluminum triflate or Al(OTf)3) can be employed as a catalyst:
- In the regioselective synthesis of cyclic ethers by cycloisomerization of unsaturated alcohols.
- In the conversion of saccharides into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF).
- Along with Pd(OAc)2/BINAP for the methoxycarbonylation reaction of phenylacetylene.

Accessing enantiomerically enriched amines often demands oxidation-state adjustments, protection and deprotection processes, and purification procedures that increase cost and waste, limiting applicability. When diastereomers can be formed, one isomer is attainable. Here, we show that nitriles, largely viewed as insufficiently

Aryl triflates were transformed to aryl bromides/iodides simply by treating them with LiBr/NaI and [Cp*Ru(MeCN)(3)]OTf. The ruthenium complex also catalyzed the transformation of alkenyl sulfonates and phosphates to alkenyl halides under mild conditions. Aryl and alkenyl triflates undergo oxidative addition
