Bis(sulfonyl)imide Salts [Metallic Salts] — covers metal salts of bis(sulfonyl)imide anions such as bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide paired with zinc, barium, potassium, lithium, or sodium cations. These large, delocalized anions give the salts high solubility in organic solvents and good electrochemical stability.
Bis(sulfonyl)imide Salts are widely used as Lewis acid catalysts in Mukaiyama aldol, Diels-Alder, and electrophilic activation reactions in organic synthesis, especially the lithium and zinc salts. In electrochemistry, the sodium and lithium salts serve as electrolytes or electrolyte additives in battery research and ionic liquids because of their thermal stability and conductivity.

Choose based on the metal cation suited to your reaction target or electrolyte system, and on residual water content, since this anion is hygroscopic and sensitive to moisture. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
