General description

Praseodymium (III) trifluoromethanesulfonate (Praseodymium(III) triflate) is a water-tolerant Lewis acid. It is an efficient catalyst employed for the synthesis of α-aminonitrile, via condensation of aldehydes, amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide.

Application

Catalyst for:
  • Asymmetric α-amination reactions
  • Polymerization reactions
  • Regioselective reductive ring opening reactions
  • Intermolecular hydroamination reactions
  • Paal-Knorr condensation
  • Friedel-Crafts alkenylation
  • Friedel-Crafts acylation
  • Biginelli reactions
Praseodymium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate (Praseodymium(III) triflate) was employed as catalyst for the aqueous aza-Diels-Alder reactions of aldehydes and dienes. It was also used as catalyst for the Aldol reaction of silyl enol ethers with aldehydes.
