Participants

Reaction Steps

As another example, 2-methyl-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoro-2-propanol may be prepared by reacting commercially available methacrylic acid with hydrogen fluoride to form 2-methyl-3-fluoropropanoic acid which may then be fluorinated to form 2-methyl-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoropropane. The 2-methyl-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoropropane may then be dehydrogenated and reacted with sulfuric acid and then water to form 2-methyl-1,1,1,3-tetrafluoro-2-propanol.
