Synthesis and aromatization of 2+2 cycloadducts of butadienes and tetrafluoroethylene

Passing tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and hydrocarbon dienes down a hot tube at 600 deg C with a contact time of a few seconds produces substituted fluorobenzenes.Specifically, tetrafluoroethylene and butadiene form 1,2-difluorobenzene.The aromatics produced bythe pyrolysis of TFE and methyl-substituted butadienes do not necessarily result from eliminating HF from 2+4 adducts of the starting materials.Solid-acids such as alumina or silica/alumina accelerate the ring-expansion elimination of the 2+2 cycloadducts.Aromatic products result from the preformed 2+2 cycloadducts at temperatures 200 deg C lower than the corresponding thermal reaction.The solid-acids can also influence product regiochemistry.
Synthesis of fluorinated halonitrobenzenes and halonitrophenols using tetrafluoroethylene and buta-1,3-dienes as starting building blocks

The gas-phase copyrolysis of tetrafluoroethylene with buta-1,3-diene in a flow reactor at 495–505 °C produces 3,3,4,4-tetrafluorocyclohex-1-ene, which selectively converted to 1,2-difluorobenzene or 1-chloro-2,3-difluorobenzene. The latter can be converted to 2-chloro-3,4-difluoronitrobenzene, 2,3,4-trifluoronitrobenzene, 2,3-difluoro-6-nitrophenol, or 2-chloro-3-fluoro-4-nitrophenol via nitration, fluorodechlorination, and hydrolysis reactions.
