Procedure
In accordance with scheme (9) above, a 500 mL two neck round bottom flask can be equipped with a thermocouple, agitator, and heating mantle. About 212.1 g (0.599 mole) 4,5,5,5-tetrafluoro-4(trifluoromethyl)-2-iodopentan-1-ol (212.1 g, 0.599 mole) can be added to the flask and heated to about 60° C. to 70° C. From a 100 mL pressure equalized addition funnel, about 196.4 g (0.675 mole) tributyltin hydride can be added drop-wise over a 4 hour period followed by 2 hours of continued heating and stirring. The RF-intermediate 4,5,5,5-tetrafluoro-4(trifluoromethyl)pentan-1-ol can be obtained through vacuum distillation and verified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (m/z 228 (M+), 211 (M+−OH), 159 (M+−CF3)).
