Description
Cesium Fluoride
Other Names: Caesium fluoride, CsF
CAS Number: 13400-13-0
Sum Formula: CsF
Molar Mass: 151.90 g/mol
Appearance: White crystalline powder
Cesium fluoride is an inorganic salt composed of cesium and fluoride ions. It is highly soluble in water and commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly as a source of fluoride ions in nucleophilic substitution reactions and desilylation processes.
Chemical and Physical Properties
Density: 4.115 g/cm³
Melting Point: 682°C
Boiling Point: 1251°C
Solubility in Water: Very soluble (approximately 1500 g/L at 25°C)
Solubility in Other Solvents: Soluble in methanol and ethanol; insoluble in nonpolar solvents
Odor: Odorless
Applications
Organic Synthesis: Used as a fluoride source in nucleophilic substitution, desilylation, and other base-catalyzed reactions.
Catalysis: Employed as a promoter or activator in specialized catalytic processes.
Materials Chemistry: Utilized in the preparation of fluoride-containing glasses and ceramics.
Spectroscopy: Sometimes used as a standard or reagent in spectroscopic analysis.

Handling and Storage
Storage Conditions: Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep away from moisture, acids, and incompatible substances.
Handling Precautions: Avoid generating dust. Handle with appropriate protective equipment. Use in a fume hood or well-ventilated area due to the potential release of hydrogen fluoride upon contact with acids or moisture.
