The synthesis and complete characterization of functional, highly Lewis acidic tris(pentafluoroethyl)silanes as well as tetrakis(perfluoroalkyl)silanes Si(C 2 F 5 ) 4 and Si(C 2 F 5 ) 3 CF 3 by direct fluorination is described. The reaction of SiCl 4 with LiC 2 F 5 invariably affords (pentafluoroethyl)fluorosilicates. To avoid silicate formation by fluoride transfer from LiC 2 F 5 the Lewis acidity of the silane has to be decreased by electron‐donating substituents, such as dialkylamino groups. The easily accessible Si(C 2 F 5 ) 3 NEt 2 is a valuable precursor for a series of tris(pentafluoroethyl)silanes.
