TiCH3SO34
TiCH3SO34, also known as trimethylsulfonium tetrafluoroborate, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3H9SBF4. It is a sulfonium salt, which is a type of organic compound containing a positively charged sulfur atom bonded to four organic groups. In TiCH3SO34, the sulfonium ion is trimethylsulfonium (CH3)3S+, and the counterion is tetrafluoroborate (BF4-).
This compound is often used in organic synthesis as a methylating agent. Methylation is a chemical reaction
The synthesis of TiCH3SO34 typically involves the reaction of trimethylsulfurium iodide with sodium tetrafluoroborate. The resulting
TiCH3SO34 is a useful reagent in organic chemistry due to its ability to selectively transfer a methyl
