Non-Human Toxicity Excerpts/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ A 4-hour LC50 in rats was reported as 436 ppm for boron trifluoride dihydrate, which is a related compound formed through hydrolysis in moist air. Outward signs, including gasping, excessive oral and nasal discharge, and lacrimation, were observed. /Boron trifluoride dihydrate//LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ In a two-week study, rats exposed at 67 ppm for 6 hours/day died before the sixth daily exposure. Histopathology showed kidney damage (necrosis and pyknosis of the proximal tubular epithelium)./LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ The principal feature in acute action... is the irritation of mucous membranes of respiratory tract and eyes. In animal acute experiments, a concentration of 42 mg/cu m proved fatal in some cases. Examination revealed a fall in inorganic phosphorus level in blood and autopsy showed pneumonia and degenerative changes in renal tubules. Long-term (4 month) exposure to 3 and 10 mg/cu m... produced irritation of respiratory tract, dysproteinemia, reduction in cholinesterase activity and increased nervous system lability. Exposure to high concentration results in reduction of acetyl carbonic acid and inorganic phosphorus levels in blood, and dental fluorosis./LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/The objectives of this study were to examine the respiratory irritancy of boron trifluoride (BF(3)) and fluorosulfonic acid (FSA) following acute inhalation exposure. Testing was conducted using groups of 10 male and 10 female rats (BF(3)) or groups of 6 male rats (FSA). Rats were exposed for a single 4-hr period (BF(3)) or a single 1-hr period (FSA) and necropsied 1 or 14 days after exposure (BF(3)) or 14 days after exposure (FSA). Measurements consisted of clinical signs, body weight, kidney and lung weight, histopathology (BF(3)), and breathing parameters (FSA) and were used to evaluate the possible irritating effects of these compounds. The results indicated treatment-related findings in the larynx and trachea in the rats exposed to 74.4 mg/cu m BF(3), consisting of ventral cartilage necrosis, hemorrhage, and an increase in ventral epithelial hyperplasia and ventral inflammatory cell inflammation 24 hr postexposure. In the animals sacrificed 14 days postexposure, the only notable observation was ventral cartilage necrosis, present in 2 animals. The next lower level tested, 24.6 mg/cu m BF, was considered a no-observed-adverse-effects level (NOAEL). A concentration of 4125 mg/m(3) FSA resulted in a clearly decreased breathing rate during and shortly after exposure with 67% (4/6) mortality on days 5-9 after exposure. A concentration of 845 mg/m(3) FSA resulted in only minor signs of irritation, consisting of slight changes in breathing pattern shorlty after exposure. The results of the present 4-h inhalation study with BF(3) indicated that respiratory irritation was present at a level of 74.4 mg/cu m whereas 24.6 mg/cu m was a NOAEL. A single 1-hr exposure to 845 mg/cu m FSA resulted in only minor signs of respiratory irritation, indicating that on a mass basis FSA is no more toxic or irritating than hydrogen fluoride (HF) or sulfuric acid.For more Non-Human Toxicity Excerpts (Complete) data for BORON TRIFLUORIDE (22 total), please visit the HSDB record page.

Environmental Fate/Exposure SummaryThe chemistry of boron is dominated by its tendency to form stable bonds with electronegative atoms, especially oxygen. Reduced boron compounds (halides, hydrides, alkyls and aryls) tend to oxidize and hydrolyze readily, and would be expected to be converted into various boron-oxide compounds in the environment. Inorganic boron compounds are nonvolatile and would not be expected to volatilize from moist or dry soil surfaces. (SRC)

Anwendungen & Verwendung

Verwenden

Boron trifluoride is used as a catalyst for polymerizations, alkylations, and condensation reactions; To protect molten magnesium and its alloys from oxidation; as a gas flux for internal soldering or brazing; in ionization chambers for the detection of weak neutrons; and as a source of B10 isotope. By far the largest application of boron trifluoride is in catalysis with and without promoting agents.

Verwenden

Boron trifluoride is the most widely used boron halide. Most applications take advantage of its strong Lewis acidity. The most important uses are in organic syntheses. Boron trifluoride is commonly used as a catalyst for Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions. It also is used to catalyze the cleavage of ethers to alcohols, to catalyze esterification reactions, and in the nitration and sulfonation of aromatic compounds. Many olefin polymerization reactions use BF3 as an initiator, in conjunction with a proton donor, such as water. Also BF3 is used to catalyze the isomerization of alkenes and alkanes and in petroleum cracking and desulfurization. Amine complexes of BF3 are used as epoxy curing agents.

Herstellung & Synthese

synthetische

Boron trifluoride is prepared by treating borax with hydrofluoric acid; or boric acid with ammonium bifluoride. The complex intermediate product is then treated with cold fuming sulfuric acid.
