Use of Cation Exchange Reaction for Generation of HF and Amine-3HF complexes

Caption

Potassium fluoride(KF) undergoes cation exchange reaction with SO3H group of Amberlyst 15DRY, leading to the quantitative production of hydrogen fluoride. Further reaction with amines leads to the formation of multiple amine-3HF complexes—a range of new fluorinating reagents.
