Direct Transformation of Tetrafluoroethylene to Trifluorovinylzinc via sp2C-F Bond Activation

Trifluorovinylzinc is a common synthetic intermediate for trifluorovinyl derivatives, including α,β,β-trifluorostyrenes and hexafluorobutadiene. Here, we report a novel synthetic approach for the formation of trifluorovinylzinc chloride via a C-F bond activation of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE), which is an industrially cost-effective bulk feedstock with a negligible GWP. The present system provides a practical synthetic route to various trifluorovinyl derivatives with very low energy consumption.

SYNTHESIS OF PERFLUOROACRYLIC ACID FROM 3-HYDROTETRAFLUOROPROPANOL

Perfluoroacrylic acid 1a was prepared from tetrafluoropropanol-1 2 by reaction of an alkyl lithium yielding trifluoroacrylic alcohol 3, followed by oxidation of the latter with potassium permanganate, after protection of the double bond.
