 |  | BENZYL 2,2,2-TRICHLOROACETIMIDATE Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | clear colorless to yellow liquid |  | Uses | Benzyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate is used for the acid-catalyzed benzylation of hydroxy groups.
 |  | Uses | Benzyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate is used for the acid-catalyzed benzylation of hydroxy groups. It acts as reagent during the synthesis of funiculosin dimethyl ether and (S)-3-(benzyloxy)-2-methylpropanal. It can also be used for mild esterification of carboxylic acids in the presence of a catalytic amount of BF3 etherate. |  | Uses | Benzyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate was used as reagent during the synthesis of funiculosin dimethyl ether and (S)-3-(benzyloxy)-2-methylpropanal. It was used in the acid-catalyzed benzylation of hydroxy groups. |  | Purification Methods | Purify the imidate by distillation to remove up to 1% of PhCH2OH as stabiliser. A solution in hexane can be stored for up to 2 months without decomposition. It is hygroscopic and has to be stored dry. [Wessel et al.
