Triflic anhydride is the chemical compound with the formula (CF3SO2)2O. This compound is a particularly strong electrophile, useful for introducing the triflyl group, CF3SO2. Triflic anhydride is the acid anhydride of the strong acid triflic acid, CF3SO2OH.[2]

It can be assayed by 19F NMR spectroscopy: −72.6 ppm[3] vs. -77.3 for TfOH (std CFCl3).

Illustrative uses

In a representative application, is used to convert an imine into a NTf group.[4]

It will convert phenols into a triflic ester, which enables cleavage of the C-O bond.[5][6]
