Procedure

Reaction of 3-iodo-1,1,1-trifluoropropane (CF3CH2CH2I) with bromine has been reported to produce 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoropropane, 3,3-dibrom-1,1,1-trifluoropropane and 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-iodopropane in yields of 13%, 26%, and 14%, respectively (J. Chem. Soc., 1951, 2495). Treatment of 3-iodo-1,1,1-trifluoropropane with bromine under ultraviolet irradiation also is known to produce 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoropropane (J. Chem. Soc., 1953, 1199).
