Method for preparing fluorine-containing ether

The invention relates to a 'method for preparing fluorine-containing ether', and belongs to the field of chemical synthesis. The method comprises the steps that under a nitrile solvent condition, carbonyl fluoride, trifluoroacetyl fluoride, pentafluoropropionyl fluoride, heptafluoro-n-butyryl fluoride, heptafluoro-iso-butyryl fluoride and other acyl fluorides are taken as raw materials to have anaddition reaction with metal fluorides to obtain perfluoroalkoxide, then under water catalysis, the perfluoroalkoxide and a low-toxic or even non-toxic harmless alkylating agent are subjected to an alkylation reaction to obtain the fluorine-containing ether. The method for preparing the fluorine-containing ether has the advantages that not only is the reaction condition mild, the yield of the fluorine-containing ether is high, but also the low-toxic or even non-toxic harmless alkylating agent is taken as a safe alkylation agent, the process is safe and reliable, and effective separation can beperformed by an ordinary distillation means in the industry.

New synthetic method of alkyl perfluoroalkyl ethers

vic-Difluorination of alkyl perfluoroenol ethers proceeded with high- valence metal fluoride, such as cobalt (III) fluoride and potassium tetrafluorocobaltate, in good yields to afford alkyl perfluoroalkyl ethers.
