Silver(I) fluoride is the inorganic compound with the formula AgF. It is one of the three main fluorides of silver, the others being silver subfluoride and silver(II) fluoride. AgF has relatively few niche applications; it has been employed as a fluorination and desilylation reagent in organic synthesis and in aqueous solution as a topical caries treatment in dentistry.
S 1530 (OTTO) Silver fluoride, GR 98%+ Cas 7775-41-9 - used as topical caries in aqueous form in dentistry. It is employed in organofluorine chemistry for addition of fluoride across multiple bonds, especially to prepare perfluoroalkylsilver(I) by reacting with alkenes. Further, it is involved in the preparation of tetralkylammonium fluorides by the reaction with tetralkylammonium bromide. In addition to this, it is used as a desulfuration-fluorination reagent on thiourea derived substrates.
