Perfluoroalkylquinones. Synthesis Using Bis(perfluoroalkanoyl) Peroxides, Absorption Bands, and Solubility

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/bcsj.68.1042

The reactions of 1,4-benzo-, naphtho-, and 9,10-anthraquinones with bis(perfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides gave the corresponding perfluoroalkylated derivatives.Those of 2-methyl- and 2-<4-(chloroanilino)>-1,4-naphthoquinones with bis(oxaperfluoroalkanoyl) peroxides afforded the dichloromethyl and trifluoromethyl derivatives, respectively.Absorption bands of the perfluoroalkylated naphtho- and anthraquinone dyes showed a slight hypsochromic shift.The solubilities of the perfluoroalkylated anthraquinone dyes into hexane were much more higher than those of the non-perfluoroalkylated ones.
