Photochemical transformation of saturated fluorocarbons into tetrabutylammonium enolates has been improved, and a method employing ketyls as reductants has been developed that accomplishes the same chemistry without light. Enolates have been isolated as enol methyl ethers, from which they can be efficiently regenerated with tetrabutylammonium iodide. In other cases, enolates have been isolated as the

Heats of hydration for a series of fluoroketones have been calculated at the HF/6-31G **//6-31G ** level, and equilibrium constants for hemiketalformation with trifluoroethanol have been measured for a related series. These reactions were found to be considerably more favorable in cyclic than in corresponding acyclic systems. Quantum mechanical calculations indicate that this difference can be traced

Recent reports from this laboratory have revealed that highly fluorinated 4- and 5-membered-ring enols are comparable in stability to, or more stable thermodynamically than, the corresponding ketones, even in non-Lewis-basic media. Work on perfluorinated keto-enol systems has now been extended to 2H-perfluorocyclohexanone plus its enol and to a series of acyclic analogues. In carbon tetrachloride, K-E/K = 0.33 (22 degrees C) for the six-ring system, but only enol is detectable in Lewis-basic solvents. This shift is attributable to strong hydrogen-bond formation between the enol and Lewis base. A perfluoroenol has been shown to form significantly stronger hydrogen bonds than the potent hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol. Acyclic systems (e.g., 3H-perfluoro-2-butanone and its enol) contrast sharply with the cyclic, as no enol is detectable at equilibrium even in powerfully Lewis-basic media. Ab initio quantum mechanical calculations indicate that it is principally the enols, not the ketones, that are responsible for the difference between the two types of keto-enol systems, i.e. acyclic perfluoroenols are strongly destabilized relative to cyclic counterparts.
