Procedure

Triflic anhydride (27.9 g, 99.1 mmol) was placed in a flask and cooled with an ice bath. 2,2-Difluoroethanol (8.1 g, 99.1 mmol) was added and the reaction was heated to 84° C. for 1 hour. The reaction was cooled in an ice bath and poured into 100 ml cold 5% NaHCO3 solution. The mixture was extracted with diethyl ether, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the ether. The residue was vaccuum distilled to give 2,2-difluoroethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as a clear liquid (13.6 g, 64%, bp˜55° C.). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 6.17-5.88 (1H), 4.61-4.13 (2H)
