Application

Nitrosyl tetrafluoroborate is an efficient nitrosating and diazotizing agent. It reacts with alcohols and secondary amines to yield alkyl nitrites and nitrosamines, respectively. It reacts with primary amines to yield diazonium tetrafluoroborates. NOBF4 is also a mild oxidant and commonly used for single electron transfer oxidation.
