Participants

Reaction Steps

0.13 g (0.87 mmol) of aluminium trichloride is dissolved in 2 g of dry diethyl ether, and 5 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran are then added. 10 g (2.95 mmol) of solid triethyloxonium hexafluoroantimonate are added to the clear solution under argon as an inert gas and dissolve immediately. After 5 minutes, the product starts to crystallize out. After 2 hours at 40° C., the product is filtered off under an inert gas, washed twice with dry THF and dried at room temperature under a high vacuum. 0.9 g of fine colourless crystals is obtained.
