Abstract

A range of metal bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}amide complexes, including many unreported ones, have been synthesised, most of which have been found to be excellent Friedel–Crafts acylation catalysts in the absence of solvent; these reactions have also been carried out in ionic liquids, which allow the catalysts to be recycled and reused.
