General Description

2H-Perfluoro(2-methylpentane) is a perfluorinated compound with the chemical formula C6F14. It is a colorless and odourless liquid with a boiling point of 58-59°C. This chemical is non-flammable, non-reactive, and has low toxicity, making it suitable for use as a heat transfer fluid and in other industrial applications. It is also used as a solvent in the semiconductor industry and as a dielectric fluid in electrical equipment. Its strong carbon-fluorine bonds make it highly stable and resistant to chemical and thermal degradation. However, due to its environmental persistence and potential for bioaccumulation, there are concerns about its impact on human health and the environment.

2,2-Dihydroperfluoropentane (HFC 4310 mf) synthesis from HFP dimer

The thermodynamic dimer of hexafluoropropene (HFP) may be used for the one pot synthesis of 2H-perfluoro-2-pentene, which is the starting compound for preparation of 2,2-dihydroperfluoropentane (HFC 4310 mf).

Reaction of Perfluoro(2-methyl-2-pentene) with Hexamethyldisilazane and Hexamethyldisiloxane

Perfluoro(2-methyl-2-pentene) reacts with hexamethyldisiloxane in the presence of cesium fluoride or triethylamine by way of substitution of the fluorine atom at the multiple bond by OSiMe3. The reaction product hydrolyses to 1,1,1,4,4,5,5,5-octafluoro-2-trifluoromethylpentan-3-one. Reaction of perfluoro-(2-methyl-2-pentene) with hexamethyldisilazane in dimethylformamide yields 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-pentafluoro-ethyl-2-trifluoromethylpropylideneamine and perfluorobis(1-ethyl-2-methyl-1-propenyl)amine, while reaction of hexamethyldisilazane with a salt of triethyl(3,3,3-trifluoro-l-pentafluoroethyl-2-trifluoromethyl-l-propenyl)- ammonium cation gives the latter two products together with perfluoroalkyl derivatives of azetine. Treatment of perfluoro(2-methyl-2-pentene) with ammonia in tetrahydrofuran affords a mixture of 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-pentafluoroethyl-2-trifluoromethylpropylideneamine, 3-amino-4,4,5,5,5-pentafluoro-2-trifluoromethyl-2-pentene-nitrile, and 2-(1-amino-2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropylidene)malononitrile.
