Hafnium(IV) triflate or hafnium trifluoromethansulfonate is a salt with the formula Hf(OSO2CF3)4, also written as Hf(OTf)4. Hafnium triflate is used as an impure mixture as a catalyst. Hafnium (IV) has an ionic radius of intermediate range (Al < Ti < Hf < Zr < Sc < Ln) and has an oxophilic hard character typical of group IV metals. This solid is a stronger Lewis acid than its typical precursor hafnium tetrachloride, HfCl4, because of the strong electron-withdrawing nature of the four triflate groups, which makes it a great Lewis acid and has many uses including as a great catalyst at low Lewis acid loadings for electrophilic aromatic substitution and nucleophilic substitution reactions.[1]

Preparation

The compound was first synthesized by the Kobayashi group in 1995 via the reaction of HfCl4 and triflic acid.[2] This solid is air stable, easy to handle, and commercially available.[3]

Uses

Electrophilic Substitutions

Hf(OTf)4 catalyzed Friedel-Craft acylation and alkylation reactions

Friedel-Craft acylation or alkylation reactions are some of the most important synthetic methodologies to introduce carbonyl or alkyl groups onto aromatic compounds.[4] The first Hf(OTf)4 catalyzed Friedel-Crafts acylation was developed by Kobayashi et al. in 1995.[2][5] The authors demonstrated that Friedel-Crafts acylation could be achieved in excellent yield between arenes and acid anhydrides when utilizing Hf(OTf)4 as a catalyst. Hf(OTf)4, was the most effective in comparison to other Lewis acids including BF3 • OEt2, Sc(OTf)3, and Zr(OTf)4. Similalrly, Hf(OTf)4 shows excellent activity in Friedel-Crafts alkylation’s, and enabled the alkylation of benzene with benzylic and tertiary alkyl chlorides.

Hf(OTf)4-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation has been utilized in the total synthesis of the altertoxin III framework. This approach provided a more efficient synthesis of the fused-ring structure compared to previous methods.[6]

Hf(OTf)4 mediated synthesis of altertoxins

Hf(OTf)4, alongside Sc(OTf)3 and In(OTf)3, has been shown to activate alkynes and enable electrophilic substitution. In 2004 Song and Lee et al. reported Hf(OTf)4-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkenylation of benzene with alkenyl derivatives.[7]

Nucleophilic Substitutions

In 2008, Zhu et al. demonstrated that Hf(OTf)4 was an effective catalyst for the thioacetalization of aldehydes and ketones.[8] In the absence of Lewis acid this reaction can occur in glycerol at 90 °C. Hf(OTf)4 accelerated the reaction rate under milder conditions with only 0.1 mol% catalyst loading. For example, Hf(OTf)4 catalyzes the reaction between benzaldehyde and 2.0 equiv. of either ethanethiol or 1.0 equiv. of propane-1,3,-dithiol readily in quantitative yield.

This methodology was utilized in the total synthesis of (-)-leucomidine B from an enantioenriched monoacid synthesized via a Hf(OTf)4 catalyzed thioacetalization.[9]

Total synthesis of (-)-leucomidine B

In 2009, Nakamura et al. demonstrated that Hf(OTf)4 was uniquely able to catalyzed a Prins reaction between an aryl aldehyde and an O-protected/unprotected cyclohex-3-ene-1,2-dimethanol.[10]
