Procedure

A solution of p-C3F7C6H4OC(O)CH3 (33.2 g; 0.14 mole) in CH3OH (200 ml) containing concentrated HCl (20 ml) was heated to reflux for 24 hours. After cooling and aspiration of the solvent, a brown liquid resulted (28.4 g; 99% crude yield). A gas chromatographic analysis indicated primarily one major component. Distillation provided the product p-C3F7C6H4OH (26.2 g; 92% yield).
