Abstract
The electrochemical fluorination of benzenes containing one or two trifluoromethyl groups has been carried out. They afforded perfluorocyclohexane derivatives with the trifluoromethyl group in good yields. Chlorobenzenes containing a trifluoromethyl group yielded chlorinecontaining perfluorocyclohexane derivatives carrying the trifluoromethyl group. Trifluoromethylbenzonitriles gave perfluoro(dimethylcyclohexane)s, whereupon the nitrile group was converted into a trifluoromethyl group, thus releasing nitrogen trifluoride. The electrochemical fluorination of a trifluoromethylnaphthalene gave perfluoro(methyldecahydronaphthalene) only in a small yield.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
