摘要:
The reaction of alpha,alpha-dichlorooctafluoroethylbenzene with tetrafluoroethylene as a source of difluorocarbene has been studied. The copyrolysis of these compounds gave not only the expected products, decafluoro-alpha-methylstyrene and alpha-chloroheptafluorostyrene, but also noticeable amounts of perfluoro-1-methylindan and perfluoro-7-methylbicyclo[4.3.0]nona-1,4,6-triene along with perfluoro-3-methylindene and octafluorostyrene. It has been suggested that indan and the triene are formed with the participation of the C6F5CClCF3 radical through sigmatropic shifts of fluorine atoms in the intermediate bicyclic compounds. The reaction of alpha,alpha-dichlorodecafluoropropylbenzene with tetrafluoroethylene afforded alpha-chloroheptafluorostyrene as the main product.
