-
Paragraph 0042, (2013/03/26)
The present invention generally relates to processes for converting acrylate esters or a derivative thereof to difluoropropionic acid or a derivative thereof. This process is generally performed using fluorine gas in a hydrofluorocarbon solvent.

Being weak Lewis bases, esters reduce the reactivity of bromine trifluoride in the substitutive fluorination of organic bromine derivatives.For this reason the rate of the reaction of bromine trifluoride with bromine-containing esters depends not only on the electronic characteristics of the substituents at the reaction center but also on the basicity of the ester.As a rule, the selectivity of the reaction increases with increase in the basicity of the ester.The reaction of bromine trifluoride or chlorine monofluoride with fluoroalkyl 2,3-dibromopropionates can be used successfully for the synthesis of monomers (fluoroalkyl 2-fluoroacrylates).
