Abstract

Salts of the tetrafluoroaluminate (TFA) anion have been known for many years. Yet aqueous routes to pure materials have not been established despite the substantial amount of literature available on the subject. The present review will discuss the various synthetic methods that have been employed and will demonstrate a revised method for preparing pure TFA salts. These materials are important because TFA is able to stimulate various guanosine nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins) and inhibit P-type ATPases by serving as a non-hydrolyzing phosphate mimic. Additionally, various TFA salts serve as precursors to aluminum trifluoride, which is used as a catalyst for chlorofluorocarbon isomerizations and fluorinations.
