1-Vinyl-2-trifluoromethyl-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobutane → Benzene, 1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)-

Participants

Reaction Steps

The general procedure was followed using 11.0 g of 1-vinyl-2-trifluoromethyl-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobutane dissolved in 11.15 g of benzene as the liquid feed at a flow rate of 1 ml/hr. Nitrogen was used as the inert carrier. The reactor was charged with 2.0 g of activated carbon. At 400° C. 41% of o-trifluoromethylfluorobenzene was produced.
