9-Mesityl-10-methylacridinium Tetrafluoroborate

9-Mesityl-10-methylacridinium Tetrafluoroborate can be used for the synthesis of γ-butyrolactones, γ-lactams and pyrrolidines. 9-Mesityl-10-methylacridinium Tetrafluoroborate has been reported by Nicewicz et al. to mediate myriad transformations through Photoredox Catalysis. The applications include the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of alkenes and addition of carboxylic acids to alkenes and the hydrotrifluoromethylation of styrenes using the Langlois reagent S673690.
