'''Potassium fluoride''' is the ] with the formula '''KF'''. After ], KF is the primary source of the ] ion for applications in manufacturing and in chemistry. It is an ] salt and occurs naturally as the rare ] ]. Solutions of KF will etch glass due to the formation of soluble fluorosilicates, although ] is more effective.

==Preparation==
Potassium fluoride is prepared by reacting ] with ]. Evaporation of the solution forms crystals of ]. The bifluoride on heating yields potassium fluoride:
: <chem>K2CO3 + 4HF -> 2KHF2 + CO2 ^ + H2O</chem>
: <chem>KHF2 -> KF + HF ^</chem>
Platinum or heat resistant plastic containers are often used for these operations.

Potassium chloride converts to KF upon treatment with hydrogen fluoride. In this way, potassium fluoride is recyclable.<ref name=Ull/>

==Crystalline properties==
KF crystallizes in the cubic ] ]. The lattice parameter at room temperature is 0.266 nm.<ref>{{cite web |title=Potassium fluoride |url=https://www.ucl.ac.uk/~ucapahh/research/crystal/kf.htm |publisher=]}}</ref>

==Applications in organic chemistry==

Potassium fluoride on alumina (KF/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) is a base used in organic synthesis. It was originally introduced in 1979 by Ando ''et al.'' for inducing alkylation reactions.<ref>{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1016/S0040-4020(02)00992-4| title = KF/Al2O3 Mediated organic synthesis| year = 2002| last1 = Blass| first1 = Benjamin E.| journal = Tetrahedron| volume = 58| issue = 46| pages = 9301–9320}}</ref>

==Safety considerations==
Like other sources of the fluoride ion, F<sup><nowiki>&minus;</nowiki></sup>, KF is poisonous, although lethal doses approach gram levels for humans. It is harmful by inhalation and ingestion. It is highly corrosive, and skin contact may cause severe burns.
