Abstract

Abstract Tetraflic acid offers ample acidity for various organic reactions that require high acidity. Its gallium (III) salt is an efficient catalyst under mild condtions for synthetic transformations such as the ketonic Strecker reaction for the synthesis of fluorinated α-amino nitriles and condensation–cyclzation reactions using suitable fluoro ketones and 1, 2- disubstituted benzenes for the direct preparation of 5-membered or 6-membered ...
