Fluorobenzene → HCID 53719400, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In a 100 ml, three-necked, frame dried, round bottom flask, aluminum chloride 1.679 (12.5 mmol), fluorobenzene 37.93 ml (404 mmol), and (dichloromethyl)methyldichlorosilane 7.08 ml (50.5 mmol) were reacted for 2 hours as in EXAMPLE 1. The aluminum chloride catalyst was quenched with POCl3 1.15 ml (12.5 mmol) and then stirred for another 1 hour to complete the deactivation. Freshly distilled hexane (50 ml) was added to the reaction mixture and insoluble solids in hexane were filtered from the organic solution. After hexane and fluorobenzene were distilled, the reaction products were vacuum distilled to give 10.49 g of [bis(fluorophenyl)methyl]methyldichlorosilane as a mixture of isomers (bp; 103° C./0.2 torr, yield; 65%).
