Description General description TBAF(9-Ph-9-fluorenol)3 is a fluoride–alcohol complex. It is formed by reacting 9-phenylfluoren-9-ol with tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate (TBAF(H2O)3). The geometric structure and bonding of TBAF(9-Ph-9-fluorenol)3 have been investigated. Application Nucleophilic fluorinating reagent is a more convenient crystalline solid for handling and storage compared to tetrabutylammonium fluoride hydrate (Aldrich 241512). As reported by Engle and Gouverneur, these solids display comparable reactivity on similar substrates.
