Perfluoroalkyl hypobromites: Synthesis and reactivity with some fluoroalkenes
Anderson, John D.O.,DesMarteau, Darryl D.
, p. 147 - 152 (1996)
The first perfluoroalkyl hypobromites have been prepared by the reaction of bromine(I) fluorosulfate with perfluorinated tertiary alkoxides of general formula RfC(CF3)2ONa where Rf=CF3 or CF3CF2. These hypobromites are of lower thermal stability but they behave similarly to analogous hypochlorites and decompose rapidly above -20 °C to give CF3C(O) CF3 and either CF3Br or CF3CF2Br. New polyfluoroethers generated from the reaction of perfluoroalkyl hypobromites with fluoroalkenes have been characterized by 19F and 1H NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy and MS.
