Metal triflates combined with caffeine based imidazolium salts: A new family of...

The direct alkylation of caffeine (1), by ethyl triflate gave 1,3,7-trimethyl-9-ethylxanthinium triflate (2) which led to 1,3,7-trimethyl-9-ethylxanthinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide (3) after methathesis with LiNTf2; 3 proved to be an ionic solid which can be used for the recovery of metal triflates (M(OTf)n with M = Sc, La, Yb, Cu, Hf, Bi). These reusable catalysts proved to be efficient Lewis acids f...
