Abstract
Perfluoroethylenesulphonyl fluoride, prepared from chlorotrifluoroethylene or perfluoropropene in six and three stages, respectively, reacts with aqueous sodium hydroxide to give sodium perfluoroethylenesulphonate, with methanol at 0° to give 1,2,2-trifluoro-2-methoxyethanesulphonyl fluoride, with diethylamine at –30° to provide 2-diethylamino-1,2,2-trifluoroethanesulphonyl fluoride, and with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride at 60° to yield 1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethanesulphonyl fluoride. The last product is also obtained by treatment of perfluoroethylenesulphonyl fluoride with anhydrous potassium fluoride in formamide at 35°. Thus the olefin is polarised in the sense [graphics omitted]·SO2F. The compounds CF2Br·CHF·SO2F, CF2Br·CFBr·SO2F, and CF2Cl·CFCl·SOF are obtained in high yield by free-radical hydrobromination, bromination, and chlorination, respectively, of perfluoroethylenesulphonyl fluoride. Reaction of perfluoroethylenesulphonyl fluoride with trifluoronitrosomethane yields a 1 : 1 alternating copolymer.Keywords
