- Absolute rates of intermolecular carbon-hydrogen abstraction reactions by fluorinated radicals
-
Using competition kinetic methodology, absolute rate constants for bimolecular hydrogen abstraction from a variety of organic substrates in solution have been obtained for the n-C4H9CF2CF2(·), n-C4F9(·), and i-C3F7(·) radicals. Fluorine substitution substantially increases the reactivity of alkyl radicals with respect to C-H abstraction, with the secondary radical being most reactive. A wide range of substrate reactivities (5200-fold) was observed, with the results being discussed in terms of an interplay of thermodynamic, polar, steric, stereoelectronic, and electrostatic/field effects on the various C-H abstraction transition states. Representative carbon-hydrogen bond dissociation energies of a number of ethers and alcohols have been calculated using DFT methodology.

- Fluorine chemistry. Part 2. Synthesis and characterization of 2H-heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea)
-
A facile method has been developed for the synthesis and characterization of volatile 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea), a potential non-ozone depleting hydrofluorocarbon substitute for Halon 1301 (CF3Br). The method involves hydrofluorination of hexafluoropropene using in situ generated onium bifluoride obtained from the decomposition of anhydrous tetrabutylammonium fluoride. The reagent acts as an excellent equivalent to hydrogen fluoride and permits the use of normal glassware.

A process is disclosed for the separation of a mixture of HF and CF3CClFCF3. The process involves placing the mixture in a separation zone at a temperature of from about ?30° C. to about 100° C. and at a pressure sufficient to maintain the mixture in the liquid phase, whereby an organic-enriched phase comprising less than 50 mole percent HF is formed as the bottom layer and an HF-enriched phase comprising more than 90 mole percent HF is formed as the top layer.

One process uses a mixture comprising HF and CF3CClFCF3and is characterized by preparing essentially pure CF3CClFCF3as indicated above, and reacting the CF3CClFCF3with hydrogen. Another process uses an azeotropic composition as described above, and reacts the CF3CClFCF3with hydrogen in the presence of HF. Also disclosed is a process for producing hexafluoropropene. This process is characterized by preparing essentially pure CF3CClFCF3as indicated above, and dehalogenating the CF3CClFCF3.

The condensation of CH2F2 and fluoroolefins CF2=CFX (X=F, CF3) proceeds under mild conditions producing the corresponding propanes FCH2CFXCF3 in moderate to high yield. Under similar conditions methyl fluoride reacts with tetrafluoroethylene giving CH3CF2CF3. However, a complex mixture of products forms in the analogous reaction with hexafluoropropene.

Adducts of primary F-alkyl iodides with nickel carbonyl are formed readily in donor solvents and pyrolyze at 100-150 °C to give olefinic coupling products in high yield. The mechanism proposed to account for the observed chemistry involves preferential α-elimination of fluorine with formation of a carbenoid species complex coordinated to nickel. Differences in reaction paths among several types of substrate halides are rationalized on the basis of polarization of the Ni-C bond in the adducts. Support for these proposals is provided by state-of-the-art calculations.

The rates of hydrogen abstraction from triethylsilane by the highly electrophilic perfluoroisopropyl and perfluoro-tert-butyl radicals have been obtained through competition experiments. These rates, 3.6 × 106 and 2.4 × 108 M-1 s-1, respectively, are indicative of substantial reactivity enhancements, relative to perfluoro-n-alkyl radicals, derived from their enhanced electrophilicity and, in the latter case, from a much stronger forming C-H bond.

- Inorganic chemistry of fluorocarbenes. 1. Reactions of tetrafluoroethylidene with fluorine-containing phosphines
-
The interactions of tetrafluoroethylidene with three fluorine-containing phosphines have been investigated. The source of the carbene is the pyrolytic decomposition of C2F5SiF3 at 200°C. The reaction of CF3CF with PF3 generates CF2=CFPF4 and PF5; reaction with (CF3)3P leads to (CF3)2PCF(CF3)2; and reaction with (CF3)2PCF(CF3)2 produces the fluorocarbon (CF3)2CFCF(CF3)2. The possibility that the vinylphosphorane product of the PF3 reaction results from fluorine-transfer rearrangement of C2F5PF2 as an intermediate product was discredited by a demonstration that C2F5PF2 is thermally stable under the reaction conditions. Other mechanistic pathways are discussed.
