The First Synthesis of Octakis(arylthio)naphthalenes: an X-Ray Study of a Novel Pressure-induced Colour and Conformational Change in Crystalline Octakis(phenylthio)naphthalene
The title compound (1) and its octakis(β-naphthylthio) analogue (2), the first examples of per(arylthio)naphthalenes, have been synthesised in essentially quantitative yield by the reaction of octafluoronaphthalene with the sodium salt of of the appropriate arenethiol in 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one as solvent; a remarkable pressure-induced crystal transformation of unsolvated (1), studied by X-ray methods, has been discovered.

Photosensitized defluorination of saturated perfluorocarbons
UV irradiation of perfluorodecalin 1 in the presence of an electron donor results in the facile formation of perfluoroolefin 2 from the selective elimination of the vicinal tertiary fluorines.
