Potassium fluoride on alumina

Potassium fluoride on alumina (KF/Al₂O₃) is a chemical reagent consisting of potassium fluoride and aluminium oxide.^[1] It is a base which is used in organic synthesis. It was originally introduced in 1979 by Ando et al. for inducing alkylation reactions.^[2]^{[verification needed]}
