- Synthesis of functionalized polyfluoroalkyl hypochlorites and fluoroxy compounds and their reactions with some fluoroalkenes
-
Several new polyfluoroalkyl hypochlorites and fluoroxy compounds containing Cl, H and Br in the alkyl group have been prepared and characterized by 19F NMR, 1H NMR and IR spectroscopies and by their reactions with fluoroalkenes to produce new polyfluoroethers.The novel compounds are prepared by the CsF-catalyzed addition of F2 or ClF to the C=O bond in CF3C(O)CF2Cl, ClCF2C(O)CF2Cl, and their derivatives HCF2C(O)CF3 and HCF2C(O)CF2Cl.Compounds containing an α-CF3 group exhibit enhanced thermal stability.New fluoroxy compounds and hypochlorites have also been prepared from the acid fluorides CF3-CFX-C(O)F (X = Cl, Br), which are obtained by the ring-opening reaction of hexafluoropropene oxide with (CH3)3SiCl, LiBr and (C2H5)3SiBr.These -OX compounds behave similarly to previously known materials with two α-F atoms, decomposing quickly at room temperature to COF2 and haloalkanes.
