No metallation of the benzylic C-H bonds was detected when n-butyllithium reacted at -78 deg C with methyl-, fluoromethyl- and difluoromethyl-penta-fluorobenzene.The isolated product, in each case, was the parasubstituted butyl toluene; respectively,1-n-b

When acted upon by HF/SbF5 at 95 °C, carbonyl groups of perfluorinated acetophenone (10), 3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one (8), 2,3-dihydronaphthalene-1,4-dione (9), benzocyclobutenone (6), benzocyclobutenedione (7) and indan-1-one (1) are converted into difluoromethylene groups to give the corresponding perfluoroaromatic products. Perfluoroindan-2-one (5), under the same conditions, is transformed to bis(perfluoroindan-2-yl) ether (21). On heating with HF/SbF5, perfluoroindan-1,3-dione (2) isomerizes into perfluoro-3-methylenephthalide (4) at 95 °C, and gives 4,5,6,7-tetrafluoro-3-trifluoromethyl-phthalide (14) at 130 °C. Compound 4 in the absence of a solvent dimerizes giving perfluorodispiro[phthalide-3,1′-cyclobutane-2′,3″-phthalide] (18), and when heated with SbF5 at 130 °C, it is converted into perfluoro-3-methylphthalide (3). When acted upon by HF/SbF5 at 95 °C, perfluorinated benzoic acid (12) and phthalic anhydride (13) give the corresponding products with trifluoromethyl groups.
FLUORINATIONS WITH COMPLEX METAL FLUORIDES. PART 9. FLUORINATIONS OF TOLUENE AND XYLENE DERIVATIVES BY MEANS OF CAESIUM TETRAFLUOROCOBALTATE(III)

Benzotrifluoride at 320 deg C afforded some m-fluorobenzotrifluoride and octafluorotoluene (III), together with perfluoromethylcyclohexane (I), and also traces of 2H-heptafluorotoluene and 1-trifluoromethylnonafluorocyclohex-1-ene.Toluene itself gave (difluoromethyl)benzene, fluoro- and difluoro-methylpentafluorobenzene, difluoromethylundecafluorocyclohexane and (I); also traces of di- and tri-fluoromethylnonafluorocyclohex-1-ene: no benzotrifluoride or (III) were detected. 1,3-Bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene at 420 deg C gave 4,5,6-trifluoro-1,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene, decafluoro-1,3-dimethylbenzene, and perfluoro-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane.Para-xylene at 350 deg C afforded 1,4-bis(difluoromethyl)tetrafluorobenzene, 1-difluoromethyl-4-trifluoromethyltetrafluorobenzene, decafluoro-1,4-dimethylbenzene (XIX), and perfluoro-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane (XVIII).Defluorination occurred to a significant extent on passage of the saturated cyclic fluorocarbons (I) and (XVIII) over the fully spent fluorinating agent (presumably caesium trifluorocobaltate) at ca. 400 deg C; the fluorocarbon arenes, (III) and (XIX) respectively, were obtained.
