Usage

General Description

Bis(dimethylamino)difluoromethane, also known as BDFM, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C4H10F2N2. It is a colorless, flammable gas with a slightly sweet odor, and is mainly used as a refrigerant and propellant in various industrial and commercial applications. BDFM is highly reactive and has been found to be a potent greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential. It is also considered to be potentially harmful to the environment and human health, and its use has been regulated in some countries due to its negative impact on the atmosphere. Additionally, it is not considered to be biodegradable and can persist in the environment for long periods of time.

Silver(I) fluoride and related compounds in chemical synthesis

Silver(I) fluoride is a versatile tool in desulfuration-fluorination reactions with thiuram disulfides and thioureas. Reactions of AgF and trimethyl(perfluoroorgano)- and trimethyl(alkynyl)-silanes offer a convenient approach to the corresponding organosilver derivatives, which are excellent reagents for oxidative organylations of group 12-16 elements. Reactions of AgF and elements of groups 13-16 open a convenient access to the corresponding fluorides.
