Tris(trifluorornethyl)phosphine is easily available in high yield using the three component system P(NEt)2)3/CF3Br/(PhO)3P in HMPA. Addition of chlorine and fluorination with zinc difluoride yield difluorotris(trifluoromethyl)phosphorane.
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.
