Reaction Steps

4.3 g (20 mmol) of the Diels-Alder reaction product of hexafluoropropene and cyclopentadiene are mixed with 10 ml of water, 1 ml of 30 percent strength sulfuric acid and 400 mg of the catalyst [CH3N(C8H17)3 ][PO4 {W(O)(O2)2 }4 ]whose preparation is described in Synthesis 296 (1989), and the mixture is heated to 60° C. 1.7 ml (40 mmol) of 70 percent strength hydrogen peroxide is then added, and the emulsion is kept at 60° C. for 6 hours. Upon cooling, a white solid precipitates which is filtered off with suction and washed with cold water. The crude product is then purified by sublimation at a pressure of 0.1 mbar and a temperature of 50 ° C.
