Application

Green etherification reagent of choice according to Glaxo-Smith-Kline's reagent guide.

Synthesis of diaryl ethers, diaryl thioethers, and diarylamines mediated by potassium fluoride-alumina and 18-crown-6
Potassium fluoride loaded alumina can be used to catalyze:
  • Dehydration of alkyl and aryl aldoximes into nitriles may be catalyze by potassium fluoride loaded on alumina.
  • Palladium-catalysed reactions to prepare allylic thiol derivatives.
  • N-Alkylation of carboxamides.
