Reaction Steps

44.6 g. of C6F13I and 12 g. of ethyl carbonate are dissolved in 30 ml. of DMSO and added slowly to a dispersion of 18 g. of zinc-copper couple in 40 ml. of DMSO. At the end of the addition, which lasts 3 hours, the reaction mixture is centrifuged and by decanting a yellow liquid is obtained and identified by comparison of NMR and infrared spectra with that of a sample of C6F13COOC2H5 prepared by esterification of the acid, C6F13COOH, obtained by reaction of C6F13I and of CO2.
