Silver hexafluorophosphate AgPF

These compounds perform a dual function in synthesis procedures. The introduction of a complex anion assists in the stabilization of the desired product and the generation of unique intermediates by chloride displacement, eg, silver hexafluorophosphate, AgPF, forms adducts with neutral diamagnetic organometaHics which can act as controUed sources of highly reactive cations (29). Silver hexafluoroantimonate, AgSbF, is an electrophilic... 

Anhydrous silver hexafluorophosphate [26042-63-7] AgPF, as well as other silver fluorosalts, is unusual in that it is soluble in ben2ene, toluene, and xylene and forms 1 2 molecular crystalline complexes with these solvents (91). Olefins form complexes with AgPF and this characteristic has been used in the separation of olefins from paraffins (92). AgPF also is used as a catalyst. Lithium hexafluorophosphate [21324-40-3] LiPF, as well as KPF and other PF g salts, is used as electrolytes in lithium anode batteries (qv). 

The silver fluorocomplexes, ie, silver hexafluoroantimonate [26042-64-8], AgSbF silver hexafluorophosphate [26042-63-7], AgPF silver tetrafluoroborate [14104-20-2], AgBF and other salts such as silver trifluoromethane sulfonate [2923-28-6], CF SO Ag, and silver trifluoroacetate [2966-50-9], CF COOAg, play an important role in the synthesis of organic compounds and have gained potential industrial importance.
