The reaction of perfluoroalkanesulfinates, RfCF2SO2Na, with allyl and propargyl halides, in the presence of (NH4)2S2O8, gave 3-(perfluoroalkyl)prop-1-enes (RfCH2CH=CH2) and 3-(perfluoroalkyl)allenes (RfCH=C=CH2), respectively, in good yield.Evidence is presented for a radical addition-elimination mechanism for the reaction.The reaction represents a synthetically viable and convenient route to such compounds.

Substitution and elimination reactions of two homologous series of compounds, induced by strong bases, were studied in aqueous alcohol and anhydrous methanol solution.Series I compounds, RF(CH2)nI having n = 2 (RF = a perfluoroalkyl group, also named an F-alkyl group), gave only RFCH=CH2 under all conditions.By contrast, RF(CH2)3Igave 4-10 times as much substitution as elimination products.Isomerization of RFCH2CH=CH2 (6) to RFCH=CHCH3 (7) occurred; this result may account, in part, for the extremely high 7/6 alkene ratios (37-81/1) obtained from elimination reactions of RFCH2CHICH3.All series II compounds, RFCH2CHI(CH2) nCH3 (n = 0-5), gave entirely elimination, and principally toward the RF group.E/Z isomer ratios varied from 2.65 to 5.These results were compared to those obtained from 1- and 2-iodooctane under the same conditions.A practical synthesis of CF3(CF2)5CH2CH2CH2I is described; the isomeric (F-alkyl)propenes 6 and 7 were also separately prepared.Rates of reactions under standard conditions for both series I and II compounds were measured.Kinetically, only second-order processes were observed, but a sharp break occurred in rate as the RF group was separated more than two carbons from the departing iodine atom, in series I compounds.Series II compounds reacted about one-tenth as fast as series I compounds.These results are discussed in the context of previous work with F-alkyl-substituted compounds.
