The Uses of Bismuth(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate

Bismuth(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate acts as a catalyst in Friedel-Crafts acylation and cycloisomerization of allene-enol ethers. It behaves as a direct substitution catalyst and involved in the substitution of allylic, propargylic, and benzylic alcohols with sulfonamides, carboxamides and carbamates. Further, it is also used in Mukaiyama aldol reactions.
