FLUORINATION OF DERIVATIVES OF TRI- AND PENTAVALENT PHOSPHORUS ACIDS BY PERFLUOROPROPYLENE OXIDE

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF01184543

Perfluoropropylene (I) efficiently fluorinates esters and ester anhydrides of P^III and P^V acids to give acid fluoride derivatives of pentavalent phosphorus acids.Phosphites are initially oxidized to the corresponding phosphoryl compounds with subsequent substitution of the oxygen by two fluorine atoms by means of excess oxide (I).
