Trifluoroacetyl fluoride → 3,3-Difluoro-3-pentafluoroethoxy-2-trifluoromethylpropene

Temperature

20 °C

Trifluoroacetyl fluoride (6 g, 0.051 mole) is bubbled into a mixture of KF (2.4 g, 0.041 mole) and dry diglyme (15 ml). The reaction mixture is stirred at 20° C. for 30 minutes and then CH2═C(CF3)CF2OSO2F (10 g, 0.041 mile) is added gradually. The resulting mixture is stirred at 20° C. for 1 hour. Hexafluoroisobutylene is distilled from the reaction mixture and the residue is poured into water. The organic layer. is separated, washed in turn with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and water, and then dried over MgSO4. Distillation gives 3,3-Difluoro-3-pentafluoroethoxy-2-trifluoromethylpropene (CH2═C(CF3)CF2OCF2CF3) (3.5 g, 31% yield, b.pt. 67° C.).
