Usage

General Description

Vinyl trifluoroacetate is an organic compound that contains carbon, hydrogen, and fluorine. It is characterized by its colorless appearance and pungent odor. This chemical is used in various applications, including as a monomer in the production of polymers and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its properties of being reactive and volatile make it suitable for these applications. Vinyl trifluoroacetate can be harmful if inhaled, ingested, or if it comes into contact with skin, potentially causing severe burns or eye damage. Proper handling and storage are essential for safety.

Styrene Production from Benzene and Ethylene Catalyzed by Palladium(II): Enhancement of Selectivity toward Styrene via Temperature-dependent Vinyl Ester Consumption

Oxidative ethylene hydrophenylation catalyzed by palladium(II) acetate with Cu(II) oxidants to produce styrene generally suffers from low selectivity and/or low yield. Commonly observed side products include vinyl carboxylates and stilbene. In this Article, the selectivity for styrene formation by Pd(OAc)2 is studied as a function of reaction temperature, ethylene pressure, Br?nsted acid additive, Cu(II) oxidant amount, and oxygen pressure. Under optimized conditions, at high temperatures (180 °C) and low olefin pressure (20 psig), nearly quantitative yield (>95%) of styrene is produced based on the limiting reagent copper(II) pivalate. We propose the selectivity for styrene versus vinyl pivalate at 180 °C is due to a palladium-catalyzed conversion of benzene and in situ formed vinyl pivalate to styrene.
