PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Silver tetrafluoroborate is a chemical compound of silver, fluorine, and boron. It is commonly used in inorganic and organometallic chemistry to replace halide anions or ligands with the weakly-coordinating tetrafluoroborate anions. Silver is a metallic element with the chemical symbol Ag and atomic number 47. It occurs naturally in its pure, free form, as an alloy with gold and other metals, and in minerals such as argentite and chlorargyrite. (L808, L809, L832)
