was injected into reaction vessel, the organic layer was
separated and dried over MgSO4. The crude product
(30 g) was found to be a mixture of four major components,
which comprised >95% of the sample, 25a±d in the ratio of
11:47:15:27, respectively. Distillation of the crude reaction
mixture afforded 10 g of fraction, bp 105±1108C and 15 g of
residue. The NMR spectrum of the ®rst fraction showed it to
consist of a mixture of compounds 25a and 25b in the ratio
15:85. The 90% of the residue were found to be a mixture of
25c and 25d. The remaining 10% were not identi®ed.

2.7. Reaction of 1,1-difluoroethane (18) and
tetrafluoroethylene (TFE)
Compound 18 (53 g), antimony penta¯uoride (44 g) and
TFE (30 g) were heated in a 250 ml stainless steel shaker
tube at 40±508C for 10 h. The products were transferred to a
788C cold trap. The excess 18 was removed by distillation,
the residue washed with water, dried and distilled to give
20 g of a mixture, bp 23±278C. This mixture contained 89%
19a and 11% 19b based on NMR analysis. The total yield
was 40%. The residue (20 g) was not analyzed. Compound
19a was characterized in the mixture. 19F NMR: 84.0 (3F,

Compound 18 (11 g), antimony penta¯uoride (45 g), TFE
(40 g) and 80 g anhydrous HF were shaken in a 250 ml
stainless steel shaker tube at 208C for 8 h. The reactor was
heated in boiling water and the crude product collected in a
polyethylene wash bottle ®lled with water. The organic layer
was separated, washed with water, dried over MgSO4 and
distilled to give 27 g of a fraction, bp 46±578C. Based on GC
and NMR data the mixture contained 22a and 22b and small
amount of 22c in the ratio of 70:29:3. The yield of the
mixture was 50%. No attempt was made to separate com-
pounds 22a±c. The materials are characterized from the
mixture. Compound 22a: 19F NMR: 87.5 (3F, s), 121.0
