Product Description
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide is a biochemical compound that could be utilized as a biomaterial or organic/chemical reagent for biomedical research.
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (CAS 189114-61-2), also known as silver triflimide or silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, is a biochemical reagent with the molecular formula C2AgF6NO4S2 and a molecular weight of 388.014 g/mol. It is used as a biomaterial for life science research and as a sulfonylation reagent for organic synthesis and drug discovery. In electrochemistry, this compound serves as an electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries, enhancing efficiency and lifespan due to its superior ionic conductivity. It is also used in the synthesis of prenylated compounds and as an anticancer agent.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide does not have a specific biological target. Its applications in drug discovery are primarily as a chemical reagent rather than a pharmacologically active compound. It has been reported to be used as an anticancer agent, but specific mechanisms of action are not well characterized in the literature. As a silver-containing compound, it may exert antimicrobial or anticancer effects through the release of silver ions, which can interact with cellular thiol groups and disrupt mitochondrial function. However, its primary use remains as a synthetic reagent.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies on silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide are limited as it is primarily a chemical reagent. It has been used to create methyl ketones by reacting with an alkyne in the presence of sodium carbonate and carbonyl compounds such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone. Its potential anticancer activity has been mentioned, but detailed in vitro efficacy data against specific cancer cell lines are not readily available. The compound is more commonly used in organic synthesis and electrochemistry than in biological assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo data for silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide are limited as it is a chemical reagent rather than a drug candidate. While it has been mentioned as an anticancer agent, detailed animal studies are not available in the public domain. The compound's silver content may raise toxicity concerns for in vivo applications, as silver ions can accumulate in tissues and cause argyria. Its primary applications remain in materials science and organic synthesis.
Enzyme Assay
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide is not typically used in enzyme/receptor binding assays. Its role in drug discovery is as a sulfonylation reagent for organic synthesis. For compounds synthesized using this reagent, typical binding assays may be performed. These involve incubating the test compound with purified enzymes or receptors in buffered solutions at 25–37°C, with binding affinity measured by SPR, ITC, or fluorescence-based methods. The silver reagent itself is not directly assayed for biological binding.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays are not typically performed with silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide. Its primary applications are in organic synthesis and electrochemistry. When used to synthesize drug candidates, the resulting compounds may be evaluated in cellular systems. Typical cell-based studies involve culturing cancer cell lines in appropriate media, treating with varying concentrations of the synthesized compound, and assessing cell viability, apoptosis, and other endpoints over 24–72 hours.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not conducted with silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide as it is a chemical reagent. Drug candidates synthesized using this reagent may be evaluated in animal models for efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity. Typical studies involve oral or intravenous administration to rodents, with monitoring of plasma drug levels, tissue distribution, and disease-relevant endpoints. All studies are conducted in accordance with institutional animal care guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide is a chemical reagent and is not subject to pharmacokinetic evaluation as a drug. Its physicochemical properties include a molecular weight of 388.014 g/mol. It should be stored away from direct sunlight, with powder stable at -20°C for up to 3 years and in solvent at -80°C for up to 1 year. The compound is sensitive to light and moisture. It is soluble in organic solvents and is used as an electrolyte in battery applications.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicological profile of silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide has not been extensively characterized. As a silver-containing compound, it may pose toxicity risks due to the potential release of silver ions, which can cause argyria (irreversible blue-gray discoloration of skin and mucous membranes) upon chronic exposure. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed, including the use of personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles, lab coat) and adequate ventilation. Ingestion, inhalation, and skin contact should be avoided.
Additional Infomation
Silver bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide is not a drug but a versatile chemical reagent used in organic synthesis, drug discovery, and materials science. In organic synthesis, it serves as a sulfonylation reagent and is used in the synthesis of prenylated compounds and methyl ketones. In electrochemistry, it is used as an electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries. It has also been mentioned as an anticancer agent, though this application is not well documented. It is not approved for clinical use.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
